Description Patrick Silva 2018-09-28 16:28:41 UTC

SUMMARY
My laptop has a special keyboard key to enable/disable the touchpad.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. start wayland session
2. press the special keyboard key to disable your touchpad
3. restart Wayland session (ctrl+alt+del, enter), try to enable your touchpad by pressing the special key

OBSERVED RESULT
OSD shows up indicating that your touchpad is still disabled.
Press the same key again: again OSD indicates that your device is still disabled.
Press the key a third time: now your touchpad is finally re-enabled.


EXPECTED RESULT
After Plasma session to be restarted, the touchpad should be re-enabled when the key is pressed for the first time
