OK this is weird. All the above still holds true (I didn't change any other settings)
I stopped running scim. Then I booted into a Xubuntu (XFCE) session, worked in it for a couple of days. (Interesting to note metacity kept trying to replace xfwm4 and X restarted like every 2 hours, xfwm4 had trouble --replacing metacity). I rebooted into Kubuntu (KDE). Viola, ibus now works. ヤッター! Works in: firefox, konsole, libre writer/calc, kate (using anthy, also individual input settings for each application). Did this get fixed with an update or something?
