Can you be more specific about what you are doing?
Do you have an application based on spice-gtk or spice-glib? Have you
checked how spicy (for example) handles copy and paste? Or are you
trying to do something special which spicy/remote-viewer are not doing?

Also, I assume you checked that with the applications mentioned above,
copy and paste works? (ie the agent is running in the guest, and working
as expected, it's only a problem with your code?)
