Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.

Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021.

(openbox is not included in 16.04 ESM)

See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested in discussing it any more. But if you are then please upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version and re-test. If you then find the bug is still present in the newer Ubuntu version, please add a comment here telling us which new version it is in.
