Focus problem like this happen with many applications for me. I have
example pidgin in corner and in front then click desktop and no response
until I manually alt-tab to show desktop. Same can happen with firefox
where firefox appear in front but actually I click on desktop that is
not visible. Change on focus by clicking with mouse seems not to work at
all.

Title:
  Focus falls back to desktop, not open Nautilus window

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is not an issue with my Warty i386, but appears consistently on Hoary PPC
  and Hoary AMD64:

  I have a Nautilus window open with a bunch of media files.  If I double-click a
  movie, xine launches fine.  Quit xine and then focus is lost from the foreground
  window to the desktop.  Same thing if I doulble-click an image file and go to
  (whatever the default image-viewer is; if memory serves it's called) Eye of
  GNOME.  After I alt-F4 or Ctrl-Q to exit the program, the focus returns to the
  desktop not to the folder I was just in.

  I call this a bug of major severity solely because it's the sort of thing that
  would trip up both Mac OS and Windows users experiencing this for the first time...
