I can confirm that this happens with "Spell checking" turned on from the
"Language & Text" menu in "System Settings". Turning it off is a work
around.

Title:
  Whitespace causes random character deletions

Status in Ubuntu Keyboard:
  New
Status in “ubuntu-keyboard” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Frustrating bug that has been around since I started dogfooding ubuntu
  on my nexus 4 - somwhere around the 180 image mark. Am currently
  running devel-proposed 223 on mako.

  Have tested this in multiple apps, including the default Notes, Quick
  Memo, Touchwriter - all have the same issue. Typing and deletion work
  fine initally, until I create an empty line - see below for an
  example:

  ------------Example-------------------
  Here I'm typing a usual line... about to make a space

  Here I'm typing after the space, etc.
  -----------End Example--------------

  When I go back to edit the first line, as soon as I delete characters
  at the end of the line, the line below jumps up, and deletes a number
  of those characters. See below for the example:

  ------------Example-------------------
  Here I'm typing a usual line... about to make ae I'm typing after the space, etc.
  -----------End Example--------------

  This makes storing notes on the device, and any editing with the
  keyboard, extremely difficult. I notice this only seems to happen when
  there is whitespace in between lines - otherwise keyboard is fine. I'm
  filing this report as a keyboard bug, as it's the only linking thread
  I can see between these programs.
