(Get the code!)
I'm the guy who got the onscreen keyboard to work by waiting.
I'm using a Win7 x64 host, and an Ubuntu 10.4 x86 guest.
I don't believe that it was the waiting around specifically which made the on-screen keyboard work, rather that having come back to it, it had stopped freaking out, so...
Also, the virtual machine is definitely recognizing key-press events. When I try to type, the blinking cursor becomes steady, as it does whenever a key is pressed. However, nothing is being recognized as any kind of command sequence. My best guess would be that something is stealing all the key press events.
The on-screen keyboard crash appears to be a separate but annoyingly coincidental issue. I'll check debug logs for the on-screen keyboard when I get home, and post anything I find either here or in a separate bug depending upon what's crashing it.
