Description sako 2013-02-21 14:24:59 UTC
A am fairly new to Linux, so this may be a bad configuration option.

I have openSUSE 12.2, running on KDE 4.8.5, on an x64 machine.

I run a VirtualBox 4.2.6 Windows 7 x64 virtual machine on a second monitor.  When I switch desktops, it operates as expected (it goes away), but when I switch activities, all other windows switch, but the full screen virtual machine stays.

Thank you for your time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Specified in description.
Actual Results:  
Full screen virtual machine stayed on screen, and task manager.

Expected Results:  
Virtual machine would remain on the prior activity.
