I've noticed this issue some weeks ago, but I missed time to report it.
Unfortunately, this has happened when opening several programs, such as Thunderbird, Firefox, Microsoft Word, LibreOffice/Open Office Writer, and some others which I don't remember now.
When the mentioned applications are opened, NVDA doesn't place the focus in them. So I have to press alt +tab or go to start menu and then press again alt+tab to back to the application window.
This occurs more specially when opening the programs for first time after the system is started, regardless on how later the program is activated after the Windows logon.
However, some behave are different.
For example: when Microsoft Word or Mozilla Firefox are focused, the problem occurs, regardless on how many times you start them.
LibreOffice/OpenOffice, if started for second time, doesn't presents this problem.
In Thunderbird, this doesn't occurs frequently.
When Microsoft Word is started, if you press NVDA+tab, NVDA says just pane, but if you press NVDA+b, NVDA reads the Microsoft Word menus.
When this happens in LibreOffice/OpenOffice, NVDA just says unknown.
My system is Windows 7 64 bit.
