Describe the bug
If the text is copied from a local machine and pasted to the first remote machine overwriting some other text, the clipboard content seem to change and - instead of locally copied text - the text which has just been overwritten on the first remote machine is pasted into the second remote machine after.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Connect to 2 remote desktops, open pluma (mate desktop text editor; probably any other text editor should behave the same way...) in each of them, and write some text in the 1st remote desktop ('BBB' for instance)
  2. Open pluma on the local machine, write some text ('AAA' for instance) and copy it into the clipboard
  3. Select the already written text in pluma on the 1st remote machine ('BBB') and paste over it the clipboard content (text just copied from the local machine - 'AAA')
  4. Paste the clipboard content in pluma on the 2nd remote desktop; while 'AAA' is expected to be pasted there, 'BBB' actually appears...

Expected behavior
I would expect the same text just copied from from the local machine will be pasted on the 1st and on the 2nd remote desktop, as nothing has to be copied in between (paste over some other text should not copy the existing text being overwritten into the clipboard).

Screenshots
I guess it is clear enough without...

Additional context
A very similar bug has been present in the past (just the selected text on the remote machine to be overwritten has been pasted instead of text copied into the clipboard on the local machine, if I remember well). This seem to be a kind of reincarnation of that one...
