Hi:

I was experiencing the same issue with my Ubunty Trusty Tahr. A workaround that worked for me was this:

1- Access the Language Support from the System Settings.
2- Select "None" in the Keyboard input method system (default is IBUS).

I restarted twice and the issue was fixed. Not sure about the potential consequences of disabling this option though; I found what the IBUS feature was (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ibus) but did not understand it completely.

Hopefully this may work for someone else. It'll be appreciate it if someone with more knowledge can tell me what does this feature do specifically and if this might affect the computer's behaviour or functionality.

Regards!
