What about, from terminal, doing something like
XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.Big5 GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx firefox
(the zh_TW.Big5 is just a guess, one that I saw googling lc_ctype for
Chinese.).
These are just guesses on my part. I've not had a similar issue, save for
the firefox thing on FreeBSD that I mentioned.
