[Bug 1773390] [NEW] Clipboard freezes when copy to/from KVM VM

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Dear Ubuntu/Kubuntu team,

recently I switched from Debian with KDE Plasma to Kubuntu and found
that clipboard doesn't work properly when you have opened one or more
windows with a virtual machine (QEMU VM, virt-manager).

For some reason approx. every 10th Ctrl+V after Ctrl+C does not work
(it's not exactly 10 times - it's random).

To test it just install virt-manager under Kubuntu and one or more guest
systems. I tested this behavior with both Windows VM (with Spice driver)
and another Kubuntu VM (with spice-vdagent package).

It does not matter if you paste it to the host machine or into guest
(VM). And this is not a keyboard shortcut issue since pasting via
context menu does not work either.

It's extremely frustrating. Especially when you use Ctrl+X since then
you cannot paste the text (Ctrl+V) so basically you cut the text and
loose it.

I didn't have this problem on Debian 9.4.0

Thank you,

Kind regard,
Jan
