 Yes, at least on my laptop for work (Debian testing).
 Not depend on users, I've tested it on my laptop with two users,
 and it happens for those two.

 No, just downgrading gnome-settings-daemon (as below) solves this problem.

 And here is reproduce step)

 1. upgrade gnome-settings-daemon to 46~beta-1
 2. logout from gnome
 3. re-login (to use updated gnome-settings-daemon)
 4. try to input Japanese on firefox-esr and could not do it
 5. downgrade gnome-settings-daemon to 45.1-1
 6. switch to second user
 7. try to input Japanese on firefox-esr and it works
 8. logout and switch back to first user
 9. logout (first user) and re-login
 10. try to input Japanese on firefox-esr and it works


 I'm not sure how to debug it and get some logs...
