Bug Description

I have tested some other GTK programs, only a combination of Firefox and ibus-pinyin causes this problem. I am on Ubuntu 14.10, and this bug is always reproducible. I think both ibus and firefox has upgraded for several times, but the problem persists. Before I upgrade to 14.10, I did not encounter this problem in 14.04. I upgraded long before using the update manager.
