Description Nate Graham 2022-01-14 03:17:26 UTC

On Wayland, my default Meta+W shortcut breaks a lot. It's set correctly in the shortcuts KCM, but just kind of randomly stops working sometimes.

Restarting KWin fixes it, and then within an hour or two, it will break again until the next time KWin is restarted.

Can confirm on Arch Linux running Plasma 5.24 beta.

Comment 2 Nate Graham 2022-01-18 22:26:01 UTC

Hmm, I haven't been able to reproduce this over the past few days.

Comment 3 Samuel Reddy 2022-01-24 23:51:25 UTC

Can reproduce on Arch Linux Plasma 5.24 Beta:
On Wayland, switch between Light and Dark mode in the quick settings, the overview shortcut won't work. This does not happen on X11.

This issue should be fixed with KF 5.91. After update, reboot your computer.

This whole issue, or just that specific set of steps to reproduce?

Comment 8 carlo 2022-02-18 22:09:37 UTC

Same problem here on Tumbleweed, Plasma 5.24.
I noticed this happens after changing some settings, e.g. theme, icons, fonts etc.
