SUMMARY
I'm not sure if this is in the right section, apologies in advance; I'm a linux noob. My keyboard input stops working with plasma and plasma apps after booting. I found that 'ibus-daemon --xim -d' fixes it, I found that suggested on a forum somewhere but unfortunately am unable to find the source again to link here.

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.20.5 is no longer supported by KDE; supported versions are 5.24, and 5.26 or newer.
Your distribution is responsible for providing support for older versions of KDE software.

Please do one of the following:
- Upgrade to a supported version and see if the issue is still relevant
- Report the issue to your distribution
