As outlined in #55 unless we identify a smaller set of fixes I'm unsure what we could do for Focal. I'm out of ideas, the only one good thing is that it seems better in later versions and got more rare. But I hate when I do not understand all of a problem, here I might need help from

Interesting thanks Jakub, 0.38 is in groovy and later spice-gtk | 0.37-2fakesync1 | focal/universe | source spice-gtk | 0.38-2ubuntu1 | groovy/universe | source spice-gtk | 0.38-2ubuntu1 | hirsute/universe | source But being a protocol change [1] I'm unsure we can SRU this to Focal

There are plenty of components involved in "trying" to fix this by spice upstream. The discussion in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/-/issues/9 is rather long. It eventually seems to be fixed in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/-/merge_requests/4 I think

Since Daniel split up the "related but not the same" mutter changes to bug 1852183 (thanks for that work BTW!) let us here focus on the spice component. Thanks lwk32 for identifying a fix for that, I'll be taking a look if that is SRU-safely backportable to Focal. ** Also affects: spice-vdagent

No mutter is not used in Kubuntu as far as I know. I was wondering about that. If you can reproduce the bug without Mutter being involved then obviously it shouldn't be assigned to Mutter. I will shotgun a few related projects... They might not all be to blame but at least other people will be

Hi Daniel, Thank you. Btw. is Mutter also in Kubuntu (KDE Plasma)? The reason I'm asking is that this issue is not just happening between Ubuntu host and Ubuntu guest (more details above). This is also happening between Kubuntu host and Kubuntu guest. If there is no mutter in Kubuntu then this

There's a surprising number of clipboard fixes already landed upstream and waiting to be released in mutter 3.36.2 -- we should probably wait and see if they help. Most of them don't have associated bug reports :/ Also, in case you haven't already please try both 'Ubuntu' and 'Ubuntu on Wayland'.

Hi Bryce, After long testing I have no problems with any key shortcuts (Ctrl+d and Ctrl+z for example), I only see this issue when using Clipboard. I tested: Kubuntu host with Console (Qt terminal) and Ubuntu guest with GNOME terminal (GTK) - problem Kubuntu host with Console (Qt terminal) and

It sort of sounds like there is a race condition going on in the consumption of the key sequence. I don't want to guess exactly what the problem is in this particular case, but just as general X info (which you probably already know...): Keyboard input is processed through several levels...

In my case (with Kubuntu 20.04) I can't even have the virt-manager window opened since it's messing up with the host clipboard (KDE Plasma clipboard). I need to close the virt-manager or I need to open a VM with no desktop (a server without X is fine). In other words: 1. host Kubuntu with guest

I can't recreate this on a 20.04 host neither with virt-manager open or not. Only in the guest. I tried editor (gnome) and kate (KDE editor) on y gnome based 20.04. Very awkward issue, I hope my video helps and I'm looking forward to what Desktop people say as well. -- You received this bug
