I don't recall other recent reports of this, so finding a solution will  
likely need some additional information.

Which version of Ubuntu?  Did you install KMM from the regular Ubuntu  
repository or somewhere else?

When it freezes, how long have you waited?  What does "top" or some  
system monitor show?  (KSysGuard is the KDE version.)  Is KMM using any  
CPU cycles, or just stuck?

If you run kmymoney from the command line, is there any useful output?

Have you tried other ways of entering a scheduled transaction?  (to see  
if it is actually entering the transaction or something in the UI which  
is the problem)

Are you using a .kmy file or a database?  Is it local or is there  
network access involved?

What Desktop Environment are you using?  Plasma or something else?

If none of these help point to a solution, you might try "strace  
kmymoney" to see what is happening when it gets stuck.  Another option  
would be to run under a debugger, but that might require installing the  
debug package for KMM, and I'd have to dig in to the details of how  
Ubuntu provides those.
