`xsel -bc` doesn't work on Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish)

The clear clipboard utility (xsel -bc) works fine on Ubuntu 20.04, but doesn't work on Ubuntu 22.04.

Edit: It works on Ubuntu 22.04, just not in specific cases. When I copy something either via ctrl+c, ctrl+x (cut) or the copy utility on the web and use xsel -bc to clear the keyboard, it works well most of the time but on some occasions it does not. I'm yet to figure out the specifics of the situations when it doesn't work, or why.
