Bug description:
  [Impact]
  on-screen keyboard cannot be reliably opened when running under xorg.

  [Test Case]
  1. Login into an xorg session
  1. Open an application with text-entries (e.g. Firefox)
  2. Try to enter text in a text entry using the new OSK

  Expected results:
  The on-screen keyboard should appear.

  [Regression Potential]
  The proposed fix requires a change in the way gnome-settings-daemon decides 
to enable or disable ibus. Please make sure that ibus correctly works when
  using a keyboard layout that requires it (e.g. chinese).

  [Original Report]
  I have always used an on-screen keyboard as a virtual keyboard for entering 
text in a different layout than my physical keyboard. This time I cannot, since 
I cannot manually trigger the new OSK.

  Steps:

  1. Open Firefox
  2. Try to enter text in a different layout using the new OSK
  3. You cannot make the OSK appear

  When enabled, the new OSK appears automatically in Activities, but I
  cannot trigger it outside GNOME apps. You have to enable the new OSK
  first from Universal Access in Settings.

  I consider this a regression from 16.04 LTS, where On-board is easily
  triggered.

  Workaround:

  sudo apt install onboard
