Feb 2, 2020 at 20:18 comment added DonP Thank you and it seems to have nothing whatsoever to do with LibreOffice as the original poster suggested. It happens in any application I use but it isn't consistent. Usually it takes two copy attempts but sometimes the first one does the job. This is a major problem that makes my work take twice as long as it should so, as much as I hate it, I may have to switched to Windows for a while so that I can get things done until this has been sorted out.
Feb 1, 2020 at 23:20 comment added Gadelha @DonP Unfortunately, this was not fixed yet, even in mutter 3.34.3 version. The upstream bug is gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/919. You can add (at your own risk) the developer repositories in the software&updates program on Ubuntu and upgrade the mutter version if you like.
