Hmmm, interesting, it works for me. (I'm on Ubuntu Yakkety, but the same Terminator version, that's what really should matter.)

What does Shift+Insert do instead of middle click? For me they're the same.

Does toggling the profile preference "Copy on selection" make any difference for you? (I don't think it will, but maybe.)

Could this be a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1401275 

Can you make sure that "copy on selection" is enabled in the terminator profile you're using?

This fixed the issue in my case. Thanks.
