[Bug 1277888] [NEW] In most apps all menu items are gray / unclickable

 

Public bug reported:

In Libreoffice write for example all menu items in the gloal menu are
gray and unclickable. Even stuff like "quit" or "about libreoffice".
Using the keyboard shortcuts to access the items works though and it's
possible to open sub-menus but nothing in them is clickable.

This happens with several other apps like Gnome Terminal, Sublime Text
(3 party package) and shotwell.

The imagage viewer has the first menu working but not the other. Firefox
seems to work. The single menu of nautilius works too.

I found a smiliar bug against Libreoffice but maybe it's a different problem.
