I would say since it works in an xterm that the issue is the two
copy/paste buffers in X.  I don't recall if anything was done with that in
the new version Tim mentioned, so try that first (there is mention of
improvements in the release notes).  If that doesn't work you want to look
at autocutsel (http://www.lepton.fr/tools/autocutsel/) which was made
specifically to fix this problem.
