The result depends on /how/ you select text.

If you select text by dragging the pointer, the text becomes the *PRIMARY* selection.
If you select it by any other programmatic means, both the *PRIMARY* selection and the *CUT* *BUFFER* remain unaffected.
If you execute the *Copy* action by whatever means, you push the text onto the *CUT* *BUFFER* and the *PRIMARY* selection remains unaffected.
The *Clipboard*, on the other hand, is internal and private to the application; it can hold any data in an application-dependent format.

The middle button inserts the contents of the *PRIMARY* selection.
The Paste action, however it is invoked, inserts the contents of the current *CUT* *BUFFER*.
These are /not/ synchronised automatically, although you can synchronise them by hand.
