I've investigated a little further.  gnome-terminal connects a callback
to the "activate" signal on the Edit menu:

  action = gtk_action_group_get_action (action_group, "Edit");
  g_signal_connect (action, "activate",
                    G_CALLBACK (edit_menu_activate_callback), window);

When not using the application menu (UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= ), this callback
is fired whenever the Edit menu is opened.

However, when using the application menu, this callback is fired once
when the terminal window opens and not when the Edit menu is opened.

This callback checks the clipboard and activates paste, hence this would
seem to be the cause of this problem.
