I would think if you put the elements in a Canvas (which allows you to lay out elements absolutely) rather than a VBox as it appears you are using now, you could force the Home button to display the way you want it to, ie:
<mx:Canvas>
<mx:Button top="5" right="5" />
<mx:TabNavigator top="5" left="5" right="5" />
</mx:Canvas>
