Description Fabio Pesari 2021-09-16 11:34:36 UTC

Hello,

I have enabled the "Make Caps Lock an additional Ctrl" option from Plasma.

When I put my PC into sleep mode, sometimes after resuming the Caps Lock key reverts to normal Caps Lock behavior and does not work as Ctrl anymore. This happens randomly, not always.

I actually am using Plasma 5.22.5 but it wasn't listed in the "Version" listbox.

Does this option still enabled in Settings when this occurs?
What if re-enabling it?

Sorry if I reply only now but the bug took a while to re-appear!

I can finally answer. 

My custom option is still enabled in the Settings when this occurs.

> What if re-enabling it?

Re-enabling restores the behavior I configured, so everything works as intended.

This works for me, please confirm if this is still an issue.

Please also include output of:
qdbus org.kde.kded6 /Layouts org.kde.KeyboardLayouts.getLayout

as it will confirm the Keyboard daemon is still active
