I struggled with this for a while as well, until I realized it was a bug.

However, instead of relying on an isActive state of a NSStatusItem view, I find it much more reliable to use the isShown property of the NSPopover you have implemented.

In my code, I have a NSPopover in a NSViewController:

  - (BOOL)canBecomeKeyWindow
    {
        if([self class]==NSClassFromString(@"NSStatusBarWindow"))
        {
            NSPopover *mainPopover = [[((AppDelegate*)[NSApp delegate]) mainViewController] mainPopover];
            if(![mainPopover isShown])
                return NO;
        }

        return YES;
    }
