As a temporal workaround until proper IBus support comes to Solus (T778/T779), you can try adding a autostart file for the IBus Daemon in ~/.config/autostart like this:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=IBus Daemon
Exec=ibus-daemon -dr
Icon=ibus

Works for most applications but WPS Office.

We have IBUS now. Let me know if it is still a problem.
