St has code to deal with input methods. I cannot test it because
I am not user of such methods, but the code that deals with XIM is:
xinit():
/* input methods */
if((xw.xim = XOpenIM(xw.dpy, NULL, NULL, NULL)) == NULL) {
XSetLocaleModifiers("@im=local");
if((xw.xim = XOpenIM(xw.dpy, NULL, NULL, NULL)) == NULL) {
XSetLocaleModifiers("@im=");
if((xw.xim = XOpenIM(xw.dpy,
NULL, NULL, NULL)) == NULL) {
die("XOpenIM failed. Could not open input"
" device.\n");
}
}
}
xw.xic = XCreateIC(xw.xim, XNInputStyle, XIMPreeditNothing
| XIMStatusNothing, XNClientWindow,
xw.win,
XNFocusWindow, xw.win, NULL);
if(xw.xic == NULL)
die("XCreateIC failed. Could not obtain input method.\n");
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void
focus(XEvent *ev) {
XFocusChangeEvent *e = &ev->xfocus;
if(e->mode == NotifyGrab)
return;
if(ev->type == FocusIn) {
XSetICFocus(xw.xic);
xw.state |= WIN_FOCUSED;
xseturgency(0);
if(IS_SET(MODE_FOCUS))
ttywrite("\033[I", 3);
} else {
XUnsetICFocus(xw.xic);
xw.state &= ~WIN_FOCUSED;
if(IS_SET(MODE_FOCUS))
ttywrite("\033[O", 3);
}
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
kpress():
len = XmbLookupString(xw.xic, e, buf, sizeof buf, &ksym, &status);
/* 1. shortcuts */
for(bp = shortcuts; bp < shortcuts + LEN(shortcuts); bp++) {
if(ksym == bp->keysym && match(bp->mod, e->state)) {
bp->func(&(bp->arg));
return;
}
}

So I think it should work. With this information you can debug the issue.
