Zoom Linux version (deb) can not use Chinese input method

Hi,

 

I'm using Zoom Linux version (deb) under locale zh_TW.UTF-8 and X input method gcin .  Joining meetings and chat in English is okay, but I can not input any Chinese characters (using XIM) in zoom chat.

 

$ env | grep IM
GTK_IM_MODULE=gcin
CLUTTER_IM_MODULE=xim
QT_IM_MODULE=gcin

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

    Hi, is there any one taking a look at that?  Since I don't have source code I wasn't able to find solutions.  If you don't have the (Chinese Linux) environment I can help to test and debug with that.
