Sometimes when I launch MailSpring, I cannot compose mail. However, shortcuts work pretty well as pressing C launches the compose window. However, trying to type into that window does not write/display anything on the screen.

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem. I can not compose email. It looks like mailspring does not recognize the keyboard. Only mouse is working !!
Can you fix this issue ASAP pease !
I can not work !!!
OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Mailspring: 1.7.8-13635bcf
After some tries, after installing hplip drivers, i got this problem:
**(mailspring:8263): IBUS-WARNING : Unable to connect to ibus: Could not connect: Connection refused
Here is the complete log:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

This happens each time i install the hplip driver that you can found it here:

Tip: Perhaps there is a conflicted version of python as it’ used by hplip and mailspring. Mailspring should use the snap python version and not the system’s one. Here is a list of all installed pythons:

Same here, keyboard commands seem to work but I cannot type text anywhere in mailspring (compose or search field).
I am using 1.7.8-13635bcf on Ubuntu 20.04.
Interestingly this behavior started after I used a new printer for the first time, using it with the auto-installed driver. Could that relate to hplip as reported above?
