Bug Description
This bug appears in Thunderbird and Firefox, not in Gedit or Gvim. I haven't tried other applications.
I used a test phrase:
abbreviation is :t
substitution is This is a test
Sometimes the abbreviation is correctly replaced, but very often the first character is not removed. In this case, it means I often get ":This is a test" instead of "This is a test".
During the test, I ran autokey-gtk -l, which showed no difference between the ok line and nok line. I'll attach the output (I just edited the username) of this command and some screenshots of the configuration used.
