[Bug 948371] [NEW] After closing last window on workspace, the keyboard doesn't react at any keypress

 

Public bug reported:

How to reproduce :

- Have a workspace with only one window
- Close it
- Try to switch on a another workspace or use any keyboard shortcut : nothing happens
- Only way to get back to a working configuration is to switch to another application by clicking an app in the launcher

I don't always experience this bug, i'm having it right now on my
desktop but not on my laptop (both running precise). I've experienced it
on other machines and on Oneiric too.

I've asked a question about this on AskUbuntu a while ago (
http://askubuntu.com/questions/89046/keyboard-shortcuts-dont-work-when-
no-window-left-on-current-workspace ) at that time I had a rather exotic
desktop configuration, but now I run Unity with almost no setting
changed and it still happens.
