Can't edit the time in clock-applet

Bug Description

1. Right-click on the clock applet
2. Choose "Adjust Date & Time"
3. Attempt to change the time

The time in the three input fields (hour, minute, second) continues to update every second, overwriting attempts to change it, making it impossible to set the time.

Edgy Eft. This bug does not occur in Dapper Dan (which I run at work).

Adjusting the minutes field (which is what I've been primarily testing) with the up or down arrow controls seems effective: just not typing it in.
Some combinations of activating the arrow controls and then adjusting via typing seem to be effective.

problem would be with time-admin, not clock-applet.
