autokey with open office incompatibility only in #!

Autokey is essential for me, but in #! I have found it doesn't work with OO writer. I don't have this problem with any other distro.

An example of error I'm getting is the following...

In autokey I have the abbreviation vnn defined to write Vajranatha  (this works fine in other apps - for example in this browser I just used it). However, in OO writer it comes out scrambled Vaajrnaath. Similar things happen with other abbreviations I have defined.

Anyone got any suggestions to fix this?

It always groups the same letters together eg

Test phrase number one!
comes out as
Teesst  phrrannumbee  o!

I installed libreoffice 4.1 directly from their own site rather than the version from the  #! repos & that fixed the problem.
