Ibus unable to interact with Typora

My bspwm is on version 0.9.10 and XFCE4 on 4.14

My Typora is on version 0.9.98-1

IBus version: 1.5.23+3+gaa558de8-2

Issue description: Ibus cannot interact with Typora under bspwm while every other apps works fine, when I  switch to XFCE4 which is on the same installation there is no such problem anymore. Also no issues when I start xfce4 with bspwm as the window manager.

 By cannot interact I mean does not even show the preedit box, does not  open the custom dialog that one of my engine provide. Again when switch  to xfce4 everything works.

I once get Typora to work tinkering with the
Code: [Select]
QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
option but somehow unable to reproduce

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install ibus
2. Start
Code: [Select]
ibus-daemon -dr
3. Add these to .bashrc and source .bashrc
Code: [Select]
export GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus"
export QT_IM_MODULE="ibus"
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus 
4. Open Typora
5. bam not working

if I run
Code: [Select]
ibus-daemon
with verbose option there'll be several warning about dbind ouldn't register with accessibility bus at the start but literal no output or warning or error during usage  of Typora unlike other applications which will have output such as "ProcessKeyEvent" and "Commit Text"

Again on Xfce4 session under the same installation everything work fine and the issue only affect Typora

I think I have missed some steps in initiating my bspwm session and cause such issue that xfce4 in the mean time does not misses.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Excuse my bad writting.
