You do something to create mouse movement or key strokes and these actions are sent to OO, it then has to figure out which window to apply these action to. OO does not seem to 'know' that you are in workspace #3 and thus applys it to #1. This sounds like a problem with OO not recognizing workspaces? Or is the window you are working on not 'selected'?
