- Start console (assuming BASH) - Type "cd foldern[TAB]" - Konsole freezes - Start console (assuming BASH) - Type [BACKSPACE] - Konsole freezes immediately Reproducible: always.
Need more info - does this work OK in another terminal? xterm/gnome-terminal/etc? I don't quite see how it could be Konsole. Also are you running master git branch?
Other terminals are OK. Just recently switched from more stable versions of Konsole. Never had this issue before. Running master branch. BTW, looks like it only freezes for about 25s, then it works again. Please find strace logs attached. They might give some hints? Look for the line with "-------------- about 25s later" in the log file. Seems to freeze during some futex call...

I'd guess it's related to ringing the bell.
Oh that would make sense about the bell - can you disable that bell in your shell and try again?
The audio notification for the bell event was disabled. I turned it on, and it looks like when Konsole resumes working, it's exactly when the bell rings. Anyway, the issue happens with either the bell enabled or not. Even if all notifications are disabled.
I have the same issue with similar strace output. It seems that issue reprodces after first or second hit on TAB and doesn't reproduces after that. konsole from ppa kubuntu-ci/unstable

The issue is resolved for me. The problem was that I'm not using KDE session but Openbox one. The notification code that runs after TAG pressed checks that plasma running using a timeout, so Konsole is hanging. The solution was to remove file `/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.plasma.Notifications.service` from the PC. Many thanks to Jos van den Oever and a user called Argonel from the FreeNode IRC for the solution.
