Description Rodrigo Davy 2018-02-17 16:55:52 UTC 
Using Arch Linux, found this bug in both my Asus T100ta tablet and my Asus N53ta laptop

My layout and language are both set to Brazilian Portuguese. I can use the regular English keys just fine but when I can't use Portuguese specific character like "à,á,â,ã,é,ê,í,ó,ô,õ,ú" the way to access them is by long-pressing the corresponding vowel, the keys with the accented vowel show up, but when I click on them nothing happens

Weirdly enough it does work with the "ç" character, I type it by long-pressing "c" and choosing "ç" in the alternate characters
