A bit of experimenting later... If you're using compiz then there is an option found once you've installed compizconfig-settings-manager and run ccsm. There's a button for "general options" and under there a tab "focus and raise behaviour" with an option for "focus prevention level" which is something about trying to stop stuff stealing focus.
I appear to at least have compiz running, so I have install ccsm, run it and changed the setting. I'll let you know how I get on.
