Can you perhaps try to play with the various values of the inputStyle X 
resource, by starting Emacs like this:

emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: callback'
emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: offthespot'
emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: overthespot'
emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: none'
emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: root'
emacs --xrm 'Emacs.inputStyle: native'

Does one of these invocations solve your problem?
