[BUG]: Write Text missing keystrokes on Firefox #40

Describe the bug

As previously reported on the abandoned project:
timothycrosley#348

Almost every time a write text button is used it misses some key presses from the text when inputting into Firefox. I'm using Pop!_OS and X11.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Configure the following action Write Text on a button with the write text.. 'Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515'

Press button when on a firefox window with a text input box. (Email, wiki etc.)

Notice that the stuff it has typed is often missing some letters.

For example if I press the button 10 times now:

Gmi Bwgsf -Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 24151
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhanlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 24155
Gmi Bwgsf -Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 24155
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhanlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 241515
Gmi Bwgsf - Mdhadnlie.tbd
I: 06435 24151

The problem does not occur when using the button on Text Editor, a console window with VI or a VS Code window.

Expected behavior

All keystrokes should be present

(I'm new to linux and also rarely use GitHub, please excuse anything I've missed out or done wrong!). [Also, thanks for making the streamdeck usable on linux! I use it as a productivity tool rather than gaming or streaming. Having it working on my attempt to switch to linux is a great help!]
