I found something that seems to work for this at least on ubuntu 20.5.  About half way down the page is an entry that says to add

    active_on_launch: True
to the end of $HOME/.config/mozc/ibus_config.textproto

My ibus_config.textproto now looks like:


# `ibus write-cache; ibus restart` might be necessary to apply changes.
engines {
  name : "mozc-jp"
  longname : "Mozc"
  layout : "default"
  layout_variant : ""
  layout_option : ""
  rank : 80
}
active_on_launch: True


I logged in and out several times and rebooted and when I select japanese input, mozc is staying in hiragana mode.

He also suggests converting to fctix and I played with that but couldn't get it working under ubuntu.

Thanks!  I'll give that a try.  In the meantime, with an update to the Chromium browser, Japanese input doesnt work within the browser.  It works in all other appliations, just not in Chromium.  The short-term workaground for that is writing everything in japanese in a text editor and then copy-pasting it from there into Chromium....
