This also happen with Oneiric fresh install. I Experience this on all my 4 computers install.

The behaviour is strange and really anoying :
open 2 gedit on 2 different viewports : gedit 1 in viewport 1 (1) and gedit 2 in viewport 2 (2)
- go to (1) and set focus by clicking the gedit 1 window.
- hit key 'a'. this print 'a' in gedit 1. (that's ok)
- switch to (2) with expo shortcut (Win+S and right click on viewport - no more click)
- hit key 'b'. this doesn't print 'b' in gedit 2 (strange)
- switch to (1) - notice 'ab' in gedit 1 (you realize that gedit 1 had focus when hitting 'b' on viewport 2)
- hit key 'c' - this doesn't print 'c' in gedit 1 (strange, gedit 1 has lost focus but you are on viewport 1)
- switch to (2) - notice 'c' in gedit 2 ! (gedit 2 had focus when hitting 'c' on viewport 1)
etc ... the bug sets a delayed focus to window when switching with Expo.

I tried to change compiz config manager > general > Focus ... > sensibility : without success.
