Screenshot showing the problem

Using Gnome Wayland in qemu-kvm
gnome-control-center-42.0-2.fc36.x86_64

- Open gnome-control-center
- Go to keyboard section
- Add some input method if there is none yet, for example ibus-anthy
- On the 3 dot menu to the right of the input method name, select "Preferences"

Nothing happens, after a while a dialog pops up:

    "Settings" is no...
    
    You may choose to 
    wait a short wile for
    it to continue or force
    the application to quit
    entirely.
    
    [Force Quit]  [Wait]


Clicking on [Wait] just repeats this, the dialog appears again after a while.
Clicking on [Force Quit] closes the gnome-control-center.

Just waiting and clicking nothing also closes the gnome-control-center after a while.

See screenshot.

It works on Gnome Xorg!

Comment 2 Mike FABIAN 2022-05-16 13:05:40 UTC
The problem still happens on Wayland using gnome-control-center-42.1-2.fc36.x86_64

Comment 3 Mike FABIAN 2022-05-16 13:15:03 UTC
Somebody reported this upstream against ibus-typing-booster:

https://github.com/mike-fabian/ibus-typing-booster/issues/299

But as it happens with *all* ibus-input methods, not only with ibus-typing-booster, it seems to be a problem in the gnome-control-center.
