Thanks Dominik for your comment. I don't know if it has something to do with timing issues, but before the update to Debian Stretch (which ships the same xdotool as Ubuntu 18.04, in comment #3 I wrongly cited "Jessie", I was talking about "Stretch" ), I was not having these problems.
Changing my shortcut (CTRL-ALT-A) to '/usr/bin/setxkbmap fr oss; mono /usr/lib/keepass2/KeePass.exe --auto-type' seemed to do the trick for 'Perform auto-type' (CTRL-V) but was not working for my global auto-type CTRL-ALT-A (it seemed not to do anything). Perhaps because I don't know how t correctly specify a keyboard shortcut with more than 1 command in Gnome shell. As a workaround, I made a shell script with these 2 commands (setxkbmap and mono) and now I call this script with CTRL-ALT-A. 'Perform auto-type' (CTRL-V) as well as Global auto-type (CTRL-ALT-A) now seem to work flawlessly (at least it has been the case for several days now). So I really suspect the problem has something to do with the management of keyboards when more than 1 is set in Gnome. @Dominik : do you have more than 1 keyboard layout set as input ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783873 Title: auto-type user and password not working (too fast?)
