Description

## Environment

- **OS:** Windows 11
- **Scrcpy version:** 3.1
- **Installation method:** Manual
- **Device model:*Nokia 5.4 6/64*
- **Android version:** 12

## Describe the bug
Android is equipped with multi-user features on several devices, one of which is the Nokia 5.4 and Google Pixel 4 as well as several series. VIVO and IQOO include this feature
[multi-users](https://source.android.com/docs/devices/admin/multi-user)

The Copy-Paste feature currently only works on the main user (admin/default), does not work on other users.
On the terminal display it displays "Device clipboard set", but on the device no action is displayed.

## Terminal
```
[server] INFO: Device display turned off
[server] INFO: Device clipboard set
```

End

Research direction

Reproduce the copy-paste behavior on a supported multi-user Android device, using the reported "Device clipboard set" terminal message as the starting observation. Trace the clipboard-control path and verify that copying to and from a non-admin user works as it already does for the main user.
