Bug Description

Hud can't work properly with Thunderbird (11).

Happens all the times. Start Thunderbird, press alt, try a command like "preferences", nothing is shown. Open edit from global menu, press alt, try same command, it appears (edit-preferences). Close Thunderbird, repeat, still not working. Can't say if the same happens for Firefox, because global menu don't work there, but it used to do the same in the earlier versions I tested.

Works fine with Gnome applications like evince and file-roller.

I selected "I don't know" because if I select package "HUD" from the chooser, Launchpad gives me an error (???)

I confirm the same happens also on another computer, with the same update level. I confirm it affects Firefox menus (here the global menu works).
