Title:
  single tap causes many letters sometimes

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Sometimes, a single key press in OSK causes multiple keys to appear.

  It is hard to reproduce, but here is what I just did that caused it:

  * I installed with --wipe brand new rtm krillin image 133.

  * In Welcome Wizard, I selected English as my language and completed
  to normal shell.

  * in System Settings > Languages, I selected Spanish as display
  language, which caused a reboot

  * On reboot, I entered the scopes "dashboard" (not the "dashboard"
  scope, but the place where you see Favorites v All and a search field)

  * I tapped the search field, which display the OSK. (Note, the
  keyboard layout is still English.)

  * In OSK, I tapped the globe key to switch layouts and chose Spanish

  Now, I got weird double keys on single presses. Bad enough to be
  unusable.

  However, after switch OSK back to English and back to spanish I don't
  get them, so I wonder whether it has to do with switching the system's
  runtime locale.
