Steps to reproduce:- 1. Open a terminal by right clicking the desktop and Open Terminal. 2. Double click the command prompt 3. Middle click to paste Expected behavior Contents of terminal appears pasted Actual behavior Nothing Oddly, terminals launched from the activities menu or by pressing CTRL+ALT+T don't exhibit this behavior. In addition, sometimes it works if you copy from a terminal launched in the two mentioned ways, and try to paste into the one launched from the desktop. https://youtu.be/aKfb9DCfPUI Video showing me launching a terminal from the activities menu where middle click paste works. Launching a terminal from the desktop context menu and middle click paste not working.
