Do you happen to have a download or clipboard manager running in the background monitoring the clipboard and possibly interfering with Inkscape and its usage of the system clipboard? Also, other applications (e.g. NetBeans Java IDE) have been reported to interfere with Inkscape's copy&paste, as well as desktops environments like Xfce.
