clipboard transfer from remote->host does not work if host clipboard is empty

Steps to reproduce problem:

1. start with fresh desktop login
2. open remote RDP connection to Windows 7 32-bit machine (I used client resolution, Color Depth 32, Quality Poor, Sound off, Security Negotiate, w/ "disable clipboard sync" turned OFF). Remote machine was on local LAN.
3. Copy cells from Microsoft Excel on remote machine to text file in any application on the Ubuntu host that accepts a text paste from clipboard (two I've tested is Google Chrome and Sublime Text 3).
4. Attempt to paste into mentioned application on the host.
5. Result will be nothing is pasted.
6. Select any text in either application on host and copy to host clipboard (this adds data to the otherwise empty host clipboard).
7. Go back to remote desktop and re-copy the same cells from Microsoft Excel onto the clipboard on the remote.
8. Go back to the host and attempt to paste the cells in an application on the host.
9. The result will be the text is pasted correctly.

I'm not sure if this is a Remmina problem, a problem with the RDP plugin, or compatibility issue w/ the daemon that manages the host clipboard in Ubuntu. If you need me to gather additional data I will be happy to.

Installed version:
remmina-1.0.0-4ubuntu3
remmina-plugin-rdp-1.0.0-4ubuntu3

Incidentally, running "xfreerdp --plugin cliprdr -u <username> <machinename>" from the command line does not seem to exhibit this behavior, using freerdp-x11-1.0.2-1ubuntu1 .
