I am using xmonad with focus-follows-mouse. The menu disappear immediately after rendering for the first time. However unlike #6 I do no have to move the mouse for the menu to disappear. And unlike #3295 I am not using compiz.

The symptoms are erratic. Here are two different patterns I see.

  1. Menu appears, the focus goes away from the main window, then the menu immediately disappears, finally the focus returns to the main window.
  2. Menu appears, the focus goes away from the main window and returns to the main window almost immediately and the menu stays visible. Everything works.

Each start of steam seems to have different probabilities of these happening. Often options one is the only one that ever happens. However sometimes it's more like 60% option 1 and 40% option 2.

I have uploaded my xmonad.hs in case someone can learn something useful from it: http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~amp/xmonad.hs
