I have the same problem with matlab 2007b and Ubuntu Gutsy.
This is apparently a bug in the version of java shipped with(in) matlab.

AWT_TOOLKIT="Mtoolkit" matlab

doesn't solve the problem, but making matlab use ubuntu's own java solves it. 
Just launch matlab with
export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/ && matlab
