Sometimes it looks like it works, but to reproduce it in 100% cases do following:

1) Select all text with Ctrl+a
2) Cut with Ctrl+x 
3) Try to paste

Surely already reported, here the dupe for FF for Android (bug 783846).

This might be fixed with bug 858918.  Could you try in the current or next nightly?  (I don't know if it's in the current nightly yet.)

I tested, it's fixed in the daily Nightly.
