Hello.
Ibus input works fine in st, other terminals, and neovim. (Though see bottom for a bonus issue.)
However, in many GUI applications (Firefox, GVim, spotify, discord, markdown editors, etc.) it instead pastes characters in a string. Say that I want to type æ - instead I get aæ (where the key sequence is <a><\><e>). This happens with many characters - however, it doesn't happen with the same set of characters across each application. In firefox, ð prints fine, but in discord, it gives \ð. CJK input works like a charm.
I have been through https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IB … leshooting and none of the given solutions help.
Currently, in my ~/.profile, I have
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibusAny advice would be most appreciated.
The bonus problem is SIL IPA input - it works in alacritty, but not st. Specifically, when using st (and many other terminals), it will delete the character that is being modified by a diacritic. For example, if I try writing ē or ɳ̊, it will not render properly in st. However, say if I then compile code containing these modified characters into LaTeX, HTML, etc., it will print fine.
Thanks again for your time.

Solved - except for the second issue.
The solution was already on the forums: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=173675
Apologies for time-wasting - I did look, just not well enough.
I will leave the thread open in case anyone would know how to fix the second.
