If I had to guess, I would guess that during the GNUS startup, you
move the mouse into the first screen. This would generate a focus
event on that screen, and as soons as GNUS waits for input (which I
presume it does trying to connect to the server), it'll switch over to
the scratch screen. What I would recommend is embedding the GNUS
startup in

(ignore-event 'focus)
(gnus)
(resume-event 'focus)
