cannot type in guake

I have installed guake from default repo, webupd8 repo as well as compiled it from sources, however, when i run guake, i cannot type inside guake. I get some gtk warnings but as such no error. I have same behavior on Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu gnome 16.04. It seems like a permission problem. One thing I have noticed is when I installed fresh ubuntu, I created first user and installed guake. With this user I can start and use guake. however, I created another user and seeing this problem while running as second user.
