Help Sharing always copies to clipboard on KIT KAT

After upgrading my Nexus 4 to Android 4.4 Kit Kat (OTA), whenever I try to share something using the standard share method, for example a Web page in Chrome, or an app from the Play Store, when I tap the share button, instead of asking what app to share it with, I get a toast message that says "copied to clipboard".

I don't have a separate clipboard app, I'm just using the built in one. I've downloaded a default manager app and I don't see any clipboard app set as a default.

Any ideas?
 
I ran into a similar issue... "Share..." from Chrome would only let me share to Hangouts, and I had already checked that Hangouts wasn't set as any default. I ended up going to Settings > Apps > Overflow (Menu) > Reset application preferences to clear all defaults, and now the Share menu works as it was supposed to.
