OK, I installed some stuff and did some testing.  On my machine:

The following tested applications pastes on key PRESS:

- gnome-terminal
- gedit
- gnome-calculator
- konsole (qt)
- xedit
- libreoffice
- gvim (gtk3)
- chromium

The following tested applications pastes on key RELEASE:

- xterm 
- urxvt
- firefox (using gtk)
- calibre (using gtk)
- emacs (using gtk)

Could you try one or two of the programs in the latter group
(excluding emacs) and verify that you see the same?

If my above observations are not due to some mucked up local
configuration, this seems inconclusive.  I'm not sure where that
leaves us.

Best regards,
