It doesn't matter which application I start, at least I could reproduce this
behaviour with every one I tried.
So:
1) Open up any application you like, f.e. the gnome terminal, on a empty
workspace.
2) Close it, f.e. by pressing Alt+F4 - it doesn't actually matter which way you
close it.
=> Somehow the main focus remains on the already dismissed window, i.e. it
shows up at the top panel.
In the discribed case it would look like that:
1) I press ctrl+alt+T -> gnome terminal appears
2) I close it by pressing alt+F4
3) The default unity top panel still reads "Terminal" and I still can click on
the menu of the gnome terminal.
Now the unity keybindings, f.e. ctrl+alt+[left/right/up/down] or even the
print button do not work.
4) After clicking at the desktop it vanishes and the focus is lost => the unity
hotkeys are usable.
Someone over at askubuntu.com [http://askubuntu.com/questions/49670
/workspace-switcher-bindings-do-not-always-work] said it may be up to
the setting for the focus tracking behaviour in CCSM, but I tried every
of the mentioned options there and it didn't change anything.
I'm sorry that the title of this thread is misleading - I simply wasn't
aware of the fact that not only the workspace switcher doesn't work but
all of unitys keybindings.
