I built g-s-d in a PPA with the revert reverted:

https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/gnome-settings-
daemon/+packages

On wayland I see no difference; everything works as expected. Also with
a fresh lunar install in VirtualBox.

But my observations on Xorg with my regular install was a bit
surprising. With im-config 0.55-1 present (i.e. GTK_IM_MODULE set to
"ibus"), I do not notice any problems with the upstream g-s-d commit. I
can type in the Firefox address bar — also in Chinese. But if I revert
the latest im-config change, so nothing sets GTK_IM_MODULE, I can't even
log in to "Ubuntu on Xorg".

So my first theory seems to be very wrong, and rather the opposite is
true: The upstream g-s-d commit works for me *only* if also
GTK_IM_MODULE is set to "ibus".

As regards the VirtualBox fresh install: Couldn't log in to x11 now
either. (And this time I used the version of VirtualBox from lunar-
release.)

Title:
  xsettings ibus commit broke text input for Firefox & Chromium snaps

Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  While preparing the gnome-settings-daemon 44 Beta update for Ubuntu
  23.04, I noticed that I could no longer enter text in the address bars
  for the Chromium or Firefox snaps.

  Therefore, I reverted https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-
  daemon/-/commit/27bc0889c so that we could continue with the update.
  See https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-settings-
  daemon/-/commit/baeeed93

  Before I did that, I tested disabling our patches but it didn't make a
  difference.

  I was unable to reproduce the issue on Debian Testing but there may
  have been differences in how snap was configured there.

  I'm filing this bug since ideally we would not be diverging from
  upstream here.
