While ibus-m17n is present on the Ubuntu desktop ISO, it does not stay
after the installation is completed unless you select one of a few
certain languages in the installer. Sinhala is (currently) not one of
the languages which makes ibus-m17n stay:
So you typically need to:
* install the ibus-m17n package
* log out and log in again
and then:
