X uses two different clipboard buffers: selection and clipboard.[*]

The buffer called selection is filled whenever text is selected.  A
middle mouse click will paste from this buffer.

The buffer called clipboard is filled by hitting CTRL-X or CTRL-C.
The CTRL-V key pastes from the clipboard buffer.

Klipper's settings dialog allows you to synchronize the contents of
these two buffers.
