Works for me. Do you have the phonon-backend-gstreamer package installed? If so, does the problem go away if you uninstall that package and replace it with phonon-backend-vlc?

Thanks. That makes this a bug in VLC, unfortunately. Please feel free to file it at https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues. |
SUMMARY When I play a video, I expect the mouse to hide after a few seconds of inactivity above the video. This does not happen. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Play a video using Dragon Player 2. while the video is playing (in either full screen or windowed), let go of the mouse while the cursor is above the video 3. wait for a few seconds OBSERVED RESULT The mouse cursor sits in front of the video, distractingly EXPECTED RESULT The mouse cursor disappears after ~2–4 seconds SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS ------------------------- ----------------------------------- Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian Sid (kernel 6.1.0-1-amd64) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7 ------------------------- -----------------------------------
