I found that it does indeed work the other direction. Copying text in konsole, firefox or kwrite on the server always populates the client's clipboard. And a blank line always get added to the server's clipboard when I copy from any application on the client.
Actually copying from any application on the client places the text in the clipboard, but not into the VNC servers, which it what I believe has been what happened in the past, and makes sense, given that I may have ten VNC viewer sessions open at any one time. But in the past, accessing the clipboard on the client, when the a particular server has focus, and selecting any line caused that line to be pasted into the server clipboard. I just checked and it appears that all open VNC viewer sessions get the blank line inserted in their clipboard. This doesn't seem like an application issue to me.
