[Linux] Macro completion sometimes incomplete

[averagenative]

Describe the bug When using a macro for instance I have /br which sends a message, sometimes it puts characters in the wrong spot or they're missing.

Best Regards, 
Dan

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use trigger to fire macro and see it fill in incorrectly
2. This is not 100% of the time

Expected behavior Text fills in and matches config/espanso/match/base.yml

Screenshots See screen recording https://notcool.club/espanso.mkv espanso.webm

Setup information

• OS: What OS are you using?

• PopOS! 22.04

• Firefox

• Zendesk

• Version: which version of Espanso are you running? (you can find out by running espanso --version inside a terminal) espanso 2.1.5-beta

Same here! Same OS. If it's helpful: for me, the issue only arises in Firefox, not in e.g. my text editor (or even in Chrome). Apart from the replacement not always being complete, it also feels slow / laggy, and sometimes the trigger text is not completely removed. (I'm on 2.1.6-beta)

Many of these problems can be resolved via force_mode: for individual triggers (leading to changes in the backend: globally or in app-specific configurations), and occasionally with other options. Have you tried those, and does the problem persist with the current release?
