A workaround for this bug (until get fixed) is to add a startup
application that kills ibus-daemon.

I've tested and it worked for me. I've tested CTRL+C , CTRL+V and worked
as they should.

As my gnome-session-properties doesn't always working (sometimes Core
Dumbed), I had to do this directly from terminal.

So

    sudo nano /etc/xdg/autostart/kill-ibus.desktop

and copy-paste the following

    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=Kill-ibus
    Comment=Kills ibus-daemon due to bug #1226962
    Icon=
    Exec=/usr/bin/killall ibus-daemon
    Terminal=false
    Type=Application
    NoDisplay=false

Save the document with CTRL+X and then Y(es) and then [Enter].

Reboot.

  Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

Bug description:
  New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout. 
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly. 

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
