I did some poking around, and found that GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus, but QT_IM_MODULE=xim - clearing that variable with 'QT_IM_MODULE= qt_app' fixes the problem. Then I looked to see where it's being set to XIM, and it looks like the problem is in /etc/X11/xinput.d/ibus, line 12. It's looking for /usr/lib/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libqtim-ibus.so, but the file is actually at /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libqtim-ibus.so. When I corrected the path in this file, the environment variable was correctly set to ibus instead of xim.
