Paste in pycharm is unreliable [linux][Focus issue]

[joihn]

Describe the bug

• if I select a clipboard entry in the main windows, press enter, it should paste it in the current app
• the above behovior works well in all my apps, except pycharm
• in pycharm, 90% of the time it does not work (entry get loaded into clipboard, but not pasted), 10% of the time it correctly get pasted
• I observed keyboard press using external screenkey app. It seems copyq is using shift + insert to paste. 90% of the time, when pycharm is in focus, shift + insert is not sent by copyQ, therefore nothing is pasted

To Reproduce Focus on pycharm window Open main copyQ windows select a clipboard entry with Up/Down press enter entry does not get pasted into pycharm :/ you have to manually press ctrl+V or shift+Insert to paste the entry

Expected behavior pasting should work in pycharm like in other app

Version, OS and Environment Tested on both ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, with pycharm 2023.xxxx and pycharm 2024.xxxx CopyQ Clipboard Manager 9.0.0~jammy x11

edit: logs

I managed to get some logs :)
