Wild guess:
Did you (accidentially) change (or override globally) some keybindings ?

On KDE that occasionally happened to me. I have no experience with
Gnome though.

That fact that it works via middle-mouse implies that basically the
communication infrastructure is working and that somehow CTRL-C
and CTRL-V just not trigger the required processes.

Kind regards,
