Also getting it on Windows 11 => Ubuntu 24.04.1
Whenever typing accents, if I do it very slowly, it doesn't seem to fail. Sounds like the faster you type the more it breaks.

@thiagosgarcia Please try Deskflow or Input Leap as Barrier is no longer in development.
https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow
https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap
If this is still an issue in those projects, we would appreciate a cross-post of this issue.
@thiagosgarcia commented on GitHub (Jan 16, 2025):
For future reference, deskflow as server and client does solve the issue.
When I was reconfiguring I did try deskflow as the server and barrier as the client, the issue was still there. After moving the client to deskflow it was back to normal, plus, I was able to re-enable wayland (since barrier is only compatible to x11)
Thanks @nbolton !

@gvlx Perhaps you could close this as fixed in Deskflow?
