Dear Christopher,

Seeing that Ubuntu developers did nothing to locate this bug other than
you guessing this might be a hardware issue – which was not an
unreasonable guess, but I already proved wrong a long time ago – I
finally took the time to locate this.  I found which package causes the
problem, located the bug in the source code, explained why it is buggy,
and – even though I did not mention this – created for myself a one-line
proof-of-concept patch (not suitable for mainstream commit), recompiled
and installed the ibus package, and saw the bug indeed gone.

Please stop assuming it's a hardware or bios issue.  It is absolutely
clearly not.

Instead, please repeat the same steps I described in the original report
on your default Ubuntu installations.  I'm pretty sure you'll face the
same behavior.  (And in the unlikely case that you don't, you should
clearly state this.)  Thanks!
