I had the same symptoms some time ago, when opening DECTerms from the
VAX to the X screen of my Kubuntu box. Chapter "2.11 Performance
Problem with Certain Keymaps" of the "DECwindows Motif Version 1.2-5
for OpenVMS Release Notes" was very helpful for me. The suggested
correction is some additional lines in the XModmap file for the X
server.

After adding these lines to my Linux .Xmodmap file, the described
symptoms disappeared. Don't know if I had exactly the same problem as
you, but for me the fix worked, so maybe it is also useful for you.

For details, see e.g.

or any other copy of the mentioned document.
