OK so this was absolutely unexpected. I had been searching for a bit and after trying on a VM and another computer it worked so I guessed it was an issue on mine. Tried:

  1. Deleting $HOME/.mozilla
  2. Disabling AppArmor.
  3. Uninstalling Firefox and running from fresh .tar.bz2 from Mozilla.
  4. Starting with env -i and only setting $DISPLAY, this worked.

At this moment I tried isolating each environment variables and found out the culprit was: GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus"

After running unset GTK_IM_MODULES, everything works as expected. I also had an issue which I thought was caused by another add-on I was looking to replace that caused right clicking on password fields to not show the context menu.

In the end, this was good since it caused me to try Tusk which seems to work really well and be much more modern than my older password manager.

This is a duplicate of #146 - I'm glad you found the source yourself though =P
