Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ibus

When I run vlc to see a movie with Windows-1251 subtitles, the vlc shows
following error:

[0x7f709c05dd50] subsdec decoder error: failed to convert subtitle encoding.
Try manually setting a character-encoding before you open the file.
Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. 
IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon 
Warning: call to rand()

and the text of the subtitles is shown as question marks. If I remove
the ibus and all it's libraries, the VLC works properly.

My guess is that the ibus did not start on boot, thus I am filing the
bug against ibus.
