Does your xmonad.hs use EwmhDesktops? If not, please try configuring it:

Increasingly, recent gtk3 does not actually speak X11 but only the Wayland  
emulation parts of EWMH, which means that it is less and less compatible  
with non-Gnome3 and plays less and less well with applications that are not  
based on the same or later version of gtk3. I suspect whatever gtk3 this  
Chrome is using simply does not recognize X11 focus any more, only Wayland  
emulation focus. This suggests that Chrome will in the future not be worth  
the effort on X11 at all, unless you run nothing but Gnome3 environment and  
approved Gnome3-compatible programs.
