Hello
I have been using Garuda for about 2yrs now and have loved it. It was my first Linux distro & I haven't looked back 
I do a lot of work via virtual machines through KVM/QEMU, & recently noticed that the copy/paste functionality no longer works. I assume this is probably from an update I did somewhere along the way but could not stop to address why the first time I noticed it. I had thought that maybe a future update might eventually iron things out, but hasn't been the case so far. So now that I have had more time, I've tried to dig in & research why.
Most of the other information on the web about others with similar problem involves installing spice-vdagent on the guest VM. For me, this was already a given, as had been setting the Video Model to QXL. I believe that I am running Xorg on Garuda host. However, the usual steps no longer work, and I'm not sure where else to start.
Here is the result of my garuda-inxi :
