when you are under virtualbox, qemu, vmware, based on my experience it works ok. i used ubuntu 12.04 on virtualbox and qemu on windows, mac etc. please see what is your locale (open terminal man locale) see that when you install os you could choose (your language.codepage) see that are correct setup. my experience see that if some one are using en_us.ascii programs (sphinx and others) not handle this. my locale say pt_BR.utf-8 if i install only pt_BR.ascii things not go very well.
