Dolphin emulator taking control of window manager

I'm using awesome wm but I have a weird issue. Whenever I have dolphin-emu (a qt based gamecube emulator) open, I cannot right click on my desktop or click on anything in the awesome panel. I can still use keyboard shortcuts to switch between tags, but I can't do anything with the mouse except click on things in the dolphin window.

This occurs even when dolphin isn't maximized or fullscreen. It occurs even when dolphin is minimized. Pretty much as long as dolphin is running. I can still see the awesome panel and my wallpaper, but it's completely unresponsive to mouse actions.

This only occurs with dolphin. No other QT or GTK apps cause this issue. Any advice?

edit: I suspect this may be a bug in Dolphin. I tried running it with openbox and have the same issues. Can't access openbox menus.

Re: Dolphin emulator taking control of window manager

This is definitely a bug in Dolphin. I downgraded to 4.0.2 (the latest stable version, over a year old) and the problem went away. I have reported the issue on the bug tracker.

Link if anyone is curious or having the same problems:
