Bug Description

What I have noticed is when I hit <Alt> to bring up the HUD and start searching for something it seems to be showing me options from the bluetooth indicator instead of whatever application I am currently interacting with. I'm not sure if this is a symptom or a different bug but if I close the HUD and try and just interact with the applications menus they no longer appear. To get the menus back you need to restart the application. I've seen this with empathy, gnome-terminal and firefox.
