This works for me, except that it beeps at me. The reason it beeps at
me, is that the 'y' operator in visual mode already returns to command/
normal mode automatically, making the final <Esc> redundant.

If you're expecting to still be in visual mode after a "+y, then
perhaps you're running with 'insertmode' set? Or in "easy" mode? If
'insertmode' is set, Vim is usually in insert mode instead of command/
normal mode, and rather than using <Esc> to go to command/normal mode,
you use <C-L>.
