I confirm this, using de_DE.UTF-8.

Typing "ü" adds "MM-<" to the input box, "ß" becomes "M~" etc.

Also strings in the menu are displayed wrong, if they contain an umlaut:
 4. PunktestM-CM-$nde anzeigen

"msgunfmt /usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/typespeed.mo" appears to display the strings properly as utf8.

Maybe typespeed sets up internal conversation in a wrong way?

I can make it fail on startup using the following - while the specified locale setting is invalid / not installed though:
$ LANG=de_DE.latin1 typespeed
typespeed: main: setlocale
