Problem alt-tabing some wine applications in openbox

I have problem alt-tabing from SOME wine fullscreen games (like Frozen Throne and CS, but no problem with Fahrenheit) when I'm under openbox (The game appears to have alt-tabed - I see the desktop for a split second and then back to the game... the desktop cannot get to focus unless I switch to other desktop). I have to do the ctrl+alt+right arrow to switch to the next desktop and then return to the previous in order to alt-tab....
Anyone know other solution?

Do you have Compiz?

In any way, you weren't promised good behaviour. So this is probably normal and something to live with.

I need real, proper pen and paper for this.

I tried once and it didn't work in CSS, but I think it does minimize when I launch another program, like winecfg.

I'm not using compiz and I've already got a workarround... just curious if someone knows a solution...
And, BTW, it's hard to lauch an app in a split second...

It's probably the applications stealing focus back.
