So, I'm new to this whole WINE thing, but something seems to be weird.

I'm trying to get the ability to type in other languages in WINE (yes I am using PlayOnLinux). I can't seem to get it working though.

Specifically, I want Esperanto and Japanese to work. But my problem is that I can't seem to get it to type any of the Esperanto characters (I can press the key combinations for ĉĝĥĵŝŭ but nothing happens), nor can I seem to get it to type in Japanese (it just won't let me switch keyboard layouts at all). I know I have the fonts for Esperanto installed (it shows the Esperanto characters just fine), but Japanese seems to have issues with the font as well (all I get is blocks).

Any idea how to fix this? I'm on Ubuntu MATE 16.04.
