Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/410

Ref: Ubuntu 15.10 - Unity desktop
Firejail Versions: 0.9.38 and 0.9.40-rc1

Following today's updates, my keyboard stops working within Firefox, and I receive the following errors when starting Firefox sandboxed:

(firefox:2): IBUS-WARNING **: Unable to connect to ibus: Could not connect: Connection refused

(firefox:2): IBUS-WARNING **: Events queue growing too big, will start to drop.

My 15.10 Lubuntu, UbuntuMATE, and Xubuntu virtual machines appear to be working normally.

I can second this issue on ubuntu 16.04.

I get the same ibus error message and have no keyboard input into any browser I attempt to use while in a firejail launch fashion.

Same on Arch with grsecurity kernel and pax restrictions enabled.

Edit: grsecurity is no longer in Arch but the same issue still exists with the vanilla kernel.

I've been using Fedora lately without this issue happening. Tonight I installed the nvidia drivers and the problem started again. Maybe this is the cause?
