Description Unknown 2020-01-20 12:57:45 UTC

SUMMARY

I cannot use the shortcut to switch to specified activity. Shortcut to switch with the last opened activity and shortcut to list activity are still working

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Define multiple activities
2. Define Shortcut bound to each activity
3. Try the shortcut

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing

EXPECTED RESULT
Activities should switch

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: ArchLinux 5.4.13
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0
Qt Version: 5.14.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I use 4 different activities. I can (should) access each one with Meta + F1 (, F2, F3 or F4).
It is not related to Meta key since Meta+Q to list activity work for me, and also Meta+Tab to switch with the last opened activity. Theses actions are to slow for me to use it instead of the Meta+F1..F4.

I don't know what information I could give to help debugging this.

New shortcut is weird to apply too, don't know if it is related. (Trying to apply a new shortcut seems to not work since it doesn't show, but it appear to be changed after reboot).

Now, with nothing different system-wise, my shortcuts are working.
Maybe it is a long shutdown (from 16h to 21h), or I am just lucky to boot with shortcuts working.

There is sure something wrong here, and would like to have some help to spot my problem, maybe some log files location, maybe some config I could do.

After another update, my shorcuts broke again.
I have found a solution here https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=137658
It is 3 years old but it still works.
