Have you try to change your input method to fcitx?
The default one is ibus.
Open a terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t) and run:
# This will print available input methods, you should see fcitx here
im-config -l
im-config -n fcitx # Switch to fcitx
# Or you can just run im-config to do this interactively
Logout and login again, you should be able to see a keyboard icon on the
lower-left corner, right click on it and select "Configure current input
method", you will be able to add fcitx-mozc.
I'm using fcitx-anthy in English environment, and it works well for me
on Gnome Ubuntu.
