Same issue here - sometimes it works, sometimes not. After several
tests I found out, that when it does not work, it helps logging out
the remote session (instead of just closing the window leaving the
session running) and logging in again. After a fresh login it works
again.

Talked with somebody using Windows at his laptop and he told me he
experiences the same issue. So this seems to be a Windows-issue.

Best regards, Martin.
