I had two machines running nearly identical Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia. I
saw the problem on one only, and it was associated with very high cpu
use (almost 100% on one execution unit/core) by gnucash 2.6.19.
Both had ibus installed and the one without a problem had ibus-gtk while
neither had
Confirmed on Mint 17.1 and ibus 1.5.5 using GNUCash 2.6.1 rev 76cba80+.
Right and left arrow keys, delete, backspace do not work. Numbers and
letters work but with delays or loss of keystrokes. Stopping the ibus
daemon resolves the issue. Installing ibus-gtk did not resolve the
issue.

A recent 'apt upgrade' caused me to hit this bug on my Ubuntu-Mate 16.04
installation. Looking over my apt history, I see that the ibus package
was installed about the time the problem started to show up.
Installing ibus-gtk and ibus-gtk3 did not resolve the issue, though
stopping the ibus
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu-Mate 16.04, and copied the home
directory from a previous 14.04 installation.
I had the problem of Gnucash with left & right arrows, backspace and
also delete not working.
Installation (and logout/in) of ibus-gtk alone did NOT help. I also had
to deinstall ibus!
This bug seems to affect any application using wxWidgets (KiCad and
pgAdmin, in addition to a test wxWidgets app with just a text box).
Installing both the ibus-gtk and ibus-gtk3 packages fixed it for me.

+ Workaround: sudo apt-get ibus-gtk.

The command ibus exit works like a charme!

Still present on Ubuntu 14.10. Fixed by
sudo apt-get install ibus-gtk
and logging out and in.
If ubuntu is going to install ibus by default then perhaps the fix is to
include ibus-gtk as a dependency in the gnucash package.

I am also suffering from this issue (both the inability to use the
delete key, and occasional very slow save times). The ibus exit trick
works for me, but I also just found another workaround which you can do
without exiting ibus:
After pressing the delete key (once or multiple times) in Gnucash,
I had this same issue with certain keys not working in Gnucash and
saving taking a long time. The ibus daemon was also the problem for me
in Lubuntu 14.04.

I am using Xubuntu 14.04. Using ibus input method. Running ibus exit
solves the issue.

One more issue I noticed - with ibus on, the file saving in GnuCash is
noticeably slower than when ibus if off (through ibus exit).

Same issue here. I can confirm that after executing ibus exit in a
terminal, gnucash is again usable. Unfortunately, I had to do this after
every login. I fixed the issue permanently by removing the ibus package.

Great info Scott. I performed the following steps (not sure they are all
relevant).
I installed scim packages and im-switch. Then I launched im-switch from the
command line and choose

I encountered similar (but not identical) misbehavior in chromium:

A suggested workaround for the chromium bug is ibus exit -- when I
tried it, both the chromium and gnucash issues went away.

Further investigation consisted in reinstalling gnucash version 2.4 from 13.10.
Same behaviour, so the bug could be related to a gtk grid bug:
