Are you sure its minimised and not just underneath Evolution?  I
frequently get this and it doesn't bring Firefox to foreground to get
focus.  I assume that the time between the click and firefox trying to
grab focus is too short, so KDE disallows it.  If Firefox isn't
already running its takes longer to start up so KDE is happy to give
focus to Firefox.
