Bug Description

---- MY SYSTEM ----
No LSB modules are available.
Description: Ubuntu 23.04
Release: 23.04

gnome-online-accounts:
  Installed: 3.48.0-1
  Candidate: 3.48.0-1
  Version table:
 *** 3.48.0-1 500
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lunar/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I have tested this on my desktop running 23.04 on Intel I-9, and the second desktop running the same (23.04) but on Intel I-7, and both of them show the same problem.

-----PROBLEM-------

When I entered my email address in my Google account, I could provide my email address, and after I clicked on the following form to enter my password. The form was able to pick up my email address and moved to the following form for password entry; it just froze in between. Sometimes, the password form could pick up the first keyboard character but never go past 2nd character. Sometimes, it just froze without being able to pick up the first keyboard character.

Then a bit later, the whole box of gnome-online-accounts blacks out. Closing with X didn't work, so I had to xkill the app.

-----TYPICAL BEHAVIOR-------

Usually, on 22.04, I never had a problem adding online accounts, particularly for Google accounts. The first form asked for my email address, and quickly moved on to the following form asking for a password. Once the password is accepted, it will move on to the next form requesting my authorization for GNOME to connect to my account on Google before adding it to my Ubuntu system (I'd see the drive folder on the bar on Nautilus).

Still with the same error, I have already uninstalled Ubuntu and it continues to freeze when logging in.
