Description Philippe ROUBACH 2019-07-02 10:26:38 UTC 
SUMMARY

lock screen, numerical keypad not "on"

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I log into kde session
2. Numerical keypad is on. good.
3. I lock my session with CTRL_L

OBSERVED RESULT

Lock screen is displayed. Good.
numerical keypad led is "on"
i type a digit with numerical keypad. this does not display a digit.
i type numlock then led stays "on".
i type numlock then led switches to "off"
i type numlock then led switches to "on"
i type a digit then a digit is displayed

EXPECTED RESULT

numerical keypad stays really "on" not only the led when switching to lock screen

Comment 1 Philippe ROUBACH 2019-07-02 21:23:45 UTC 
exactly the same problem when opening a kde session for a second user.

When reaching the login screen for opening a kde session for a second user
then
numerical keypad led is "on"
i type a digit with numerical keypad. this does not display a digit.
i type numlock then led stays "on".
i type numlock then led switches to "off"
i type numlock then led switches to "on"
i type a digit then a digit is displayed
Comment 2 Philippe ROUBACH 2019-07-03 16:11:42 UTC 
Strangely if lock screen is displayed by automatic process (inactivity at keyboard and mouse) then numerical keypad is really "on".

What does it say in System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard > NumLock on Plasma Startup?

Comment 7 sixg0000d 2020-11-08 23:59:19 UTC 
My sddm seems like occurred same problem, but I'm using:

Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.73.0
Qt Version: 5.15.1

in

Fedora 33
X.Org X Server 1.20.9
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0

And I reproduce the bug every time I enter the login session.(Numlock led is on but Numpad doesn't work, I have to click 3 times Numlock to enable it)

And the bug will not reproduce in gdm.
Comment 8 Eugene Savitsky 2024-05-27 17:29:02 UTC 
KDE 6.0.5 on Fedora 40. Works for me.
Comment 9 TraceyC 2025-01-14 17:04:04 UTC 
Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with either Plasma 5.27.11 (the current LTS version) or Plasma 6.2.5 (the latest released version)?

If you can still reproduce the bug, please change the Status to "CONFIRMED". Thanks.
Comment 10 Philippe ROUBACH 2025-01-14 17:24:07 UTC 
No more problem
Comment 11 TraceyC 2025-01-15 15:13:20 UTC
