Problems with the clipboard in code

Hi. I have been using Arch linux Hyprland for several months now. And only today I discovered that the clipboard in vs code is not working correctly. I can't copy the code from there and paste anything into it. At the same time, everything used to work fine. What could be the problem, how can I fix it? I guess something might have broken after I installed hyperpanel and dependencies.

Same problem on KDE. I don't think it is related to Hyprland.

The problem seems to come from last electron update. Downgrading electron32 package to 32.2.8-3 solved the problem for me.

I can confirm both the problem and the temporary solution.
