Public bug reported:
Since I am on a new machine with Ubuntu 18.04 (previously on 14.04 and
16.04 - and worked on both) I have a problem with auto-type (keepass2
v2.39.1).
On various websites (be it LinkedIn, XING, Outlook Web Access and many
others) I cannot auto-type user AND password (usually sequence
{USERNAME}{TAB}{PASSWORD}{ENTER}).
The user name still gets typed correctly, but then somehow on or after
the {TAB} the problem begins as on {ENTER} I get notified by the
websites that I typed a wrong password. As there are only asterix
characters I cannot exactly tell where it fails.
To me it seems that after the {TAB} some characters are not auto-typed
correctly. However the cursor lands in the password field and also does
type something. I think some characters simply get lost. My new machine
is quite fast and probably it would help if auto-type would be a little
slower (just a guess).
My current workaround is to have two autotype sequences: One for
{USERNAME}{TAB} and the other for {PASSWORD}{ENTER}. So I have two press
two times the hotkey for auto-type choosing the first sequence and then
the second. Doing it this way works.
