Does your emacs use the Gtk+ toolkit? If yes, then this is a (very) long standing problem in Gtk+: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D85715 there are some workarounds for this in emacs, but it cannot be fixed until Gtk+ is fixed (not very likely, it seems). This problem gets reported from time to time... If emacs is configured using --with-x-toolkit=3Dlucid you will not have this problem.
