I confirm the bug is still present (in Ubuntu 14.04). In my case me
having Gis Weather running on the desktop makes the bug to manifest.

Title:
  When last window on workspace doesn't accept focus, the keyboard
  doesn't react at any keypress

Status in Compiz:
  Confirmed
Status in Compiz Core:
  Confirmed
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.

  === update ===

  This bug happends when there is a sticky window on the desktop that
  doesn't accept focus (covergloobus does that, but I've also written a
  short Python program in comment #15 that can trigger the bug)
