I logged this issue on Launchpad (bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/keepassx/+bug/891048\) and here is the text of that bug (logged using apport):

I have a EN-GB keyboard, and the @ character is on the same location as the " would be on a EN-US keyboard. I wonder whether this is causing a conflict.

    I'm seeing the same bug. Forward slash becomes hash, double-quote becomes at symbol, etc.

    I'm also a GB keyboard user, I'm using Kubuntu 11.04

    Since KeePassX encourages you to use funky characters in password, it's a bit annoying ! Appreciate anything you can do to fix this.

    Cheers,
    Paul

    I have the same problem I am also a GB keyboard user. This is very annoying concerning usernames which are actually email addresses, since they obviously contain the @ symbol, which is typed as "

    I don't think this is a KeePassX bug see:

    "setxkbmap gb" works for me
