[Bug 1478902] [NEW] Pressing a HW key like backspace doesn't autorepeat

 

Public bug reported:

When using unity8 on the desktop with a hardware keyboard, autorepeat
doesn't work. For example, keeping the backspace key pressed doesn't
gradually erase all the characters, the caret doesn't move after the
first keypress. This works correctly with an onscreen keyboard.

** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Package changed: indicator-sound (Ubuntu) => ubuntu-ui-toolkit
(Ubuntu)
