Title:
Unity blocks other programs from receiving key-press events.
To manage notifications about this bug
Right, as I suspected.
I'm in the process of working around this in Do by actually reporting an
error when binding the keys fail, so at least users have some idea of
why things aren't working.
We might want some documentation that clearly states that all s
are belong to Unity.

raof, yes Unity does cause Compiz to add passive grabs on Super+AnyKey
(on the root window I think). Whenever a plugin requests to bind to a
single modifier key, Compiz has to also bind to modifier+everything_else
so as to be able to distinguish between the modifier being tapped (for
the plugin) or
Daniel: is it possible that you've got a grab on or somesuch?
GNOME Do *can* receive + events (as your xev test shows),
but attempting to add a grab on that combination fails (that's what the
libdo-WARNING is about), which would be the case if Unity were grabbing
the keys already.

Douglas, it sounds like you might also have bug 806255 rather than this
one.

What I am observing still is thus:
Background: Windows is running in VirtualBox, running in a Unity
session. The VirtualBox keyboard lock is active.
If I tap the Super key, the Windows start menu and the Dash Home open.
(Bad: Dash Home shouldn't open.)
If I hold the Super key for half a second a
@Daniel: I agree. Over the past few days, I've noticed that gnome-do can
successfully use super+space as a key binding, but that whenever I
restart it, it loses the binding and I have to reassign it. Sorry for
the noise.

I can still reproduce the issue:
Setup synergy with the Ubuntu 12.04 machine as master, Windows 7 machine as
slave.
"" set as "Key to show the launcher" in CompizConfig Settings Manager.
(default)
Go onto the Windows desktop.
Press the Windows key (super).
Windows start menu displayed.

I still can't reproduce this bug in 12.04. xev reports Super+Space
correctly. However gnome-do fails to bind to Super+Space:
(Do:12793): libdo-WARNING **: Binding 'space' failed!
[Error 11:33:27.893] [AbstractKeyBindingService] Failed to bind "Summon Do" to
"space"
That's a separate issue which
The same thing for me. Super+L combination does not lock the screen
after upgrade to 12.04. Any combination without Super (e.g. Ctrl-Alt-L)
works fine.

This is marked as fixed, but on upgrading from 11.10 to 12.04, I seem to
have lost Super key functionality again (for gnome-do and my IDE). Is
there some configuration item that I'm missing to make it play nice?

I think this bug is fixed; at least the bug described in the Bug

The issue with VMs is unresolved and should be discussed in bug 806255.

Personally, I just didn't like Unity using Super as a standalone button.
(In the words of Alton Brown, "It's a uni-tasker!") I made Alt-F1 open
the launcher, and disabled keyboard focus to the dash. While I was at
it, I also made the dash appear only if I touched the upper-left corner.
I still have
@traxxas, the bug description says that compiz bindings were working for
the person who reported this bug. Only external programs (i.e. not
compiz) had a problem with receiving keypresses. I suggest you
log a new bug, or find a different one that fits your symptoms better.

This bug is not fixed in Oneiric, it exists currently and won't let
other compiz plugins like scale work anymore. It was working on my
initial install of Oneiric but has since resurfaced.
