 Replying to [comment:1 scribu]:
 > This sounds like a bug in is_front_page(). We should try to fix it,
 instead of papering over it with a filter.
 You are right, that will be better. Think the problem is that the page
 which you set to the front page is no longer a page, but a post type
 archive. Therefore, this '$this->is_page( get_option( 'page_on_front' ) )'
 will never return true, since the current page is no page. So maybe this
 issue is in is_page() instead of this is_front_page() function?
