Bug Description
I have KDE 4 installed on top of ubuntu.
i encountered this issue of not being able to type accented characters such as ñ, using the Compose key in KDE apps, e.g. the Search box in the Kickoff menu, or Kate.
I can only do this in "GTK" apps. I tried this on Firefox (where I typed this post), GEdit, and OpenOffice. They all work.
I did try System Settings -> Regional ... -> Keyboard Layout -> Advanced, and set Right Alt to be Compose key. Nothing. It just produces ~n.

Version: (using KDE 4.1.2)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
When using Kate or Kwrite if I write an accented character after saving the document I'm editing as a new file, it prints the accent right away.
For example: ~a on opposing to ã.
