Bug description:
  From Valve’s TF2 porter: 
  https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/732

  We are only grabbing the mouse (XGrabPointer), but it appears that
  some window managers (Unity) take that to mean grab the keyboard as
  well and therefore alt+tab won't work unless you hit escape or chat
  first.
