I use hold, shot and rests extensively, and enter them with either the Chord Options pop up (Alt+F5) or direct typing input (like "C...b") depending on what I'm trying to do. I've found the two entry methods to work identically and have never experienced the code being ignored.

Unless somebody else on the forum recognizes your issue and knows what's up, maybe you can provide more information and maybe a screenshot?
