Ubuntu Studio 14.04, GIT commit: 3338af9

1) score
2) enter note
3) enter lyric, and try to use Ctrl+Space to enter a "hard" space

Result: Ctrl+Space does nothing

Seems to work on Windows. Not sure about Mac.

Interesting. Anyone have any insight into what may be going on? My keybaord is US standard / QWERTY. I've done a reset to factory settings, no change. I haven't found where in the code "Space" is intercepted for lyric entry.

Turns out it is a setting in xfce somewhere, something to do with Ibus & switching keyboard input methods or something. Disabled it and now ctrl+space works :-)
