Works for me

Works for me with everything from Git master.

Does it still happen on Neon unstable?
Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2019-07-16 16:00:59 UTC
I can't reproduce with elisa 0.4.2 on another distribution called Void.
Elisa also suppresses the power management on my Neon unstable edition.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2019-07-16 16:22:37 UTC
Does Void use the unreleased Plasma 5.17 already?
Comment 4 Patrick Silva 2019-07-16 16:26:56 UTC

No. It uses Plasma 5.16.3.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2019-07-16 17:24:02 UTC
Strange.

Still, this seems like it's an Arch-specific packaging or configuration issue, since it works elsewhere. I would encourage you to report it to the Arch folks. Thanks!

Comment from Antonio Rojas:
"Apparently this is only implemented in the vlc backend, which we don't use

https://cgit.kde.org/elisa.git/commit/?id=a44ad7b412674800ad43beb587011515b509d837

Please ask upstream to enable this for the qtmultimedia backend too"
