Well, it looks like the issue is not solved.

The file (~/Library/Group 
Containers/com.apple.InputMethodKit.TextReplacementService) does not exist 
anymore but the issue appears again. This time after changing of account and 
coming back to the original one. It usually appears after a reboot, or when the 
machine wakes up from deep sleep...

Weird.
