SUMMARY touchpad settings, like natural scrolling and speed, reset a lot. an obvious one being on disconnect - when reconnected, it behaves as on defaults even as systemsettings reports the settings I want. so I turn device enabled on and off for the apply button to become available and click apply and it's back to my settings STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. apply custom (non-default) touchpad settings 2. disconnect touchpad (I'm using a magic trackpad in this case so I just turn it off) 3. reconnect OBSERVED RESULT touchpad settings behave as if they were set to their defaults but systemsettings reflects the custom settings EXPECTED RESULT touchpad behaving with the custom settings SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 32 KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION this has been happening for a long time since many releases back but it's finally driven me crazy enough for me to file the bug, as it happens a lot, not just on disconnects but that's an easy deterministic one to try

Sounds a bit like Bug 414559. Does this happen if you manually run `sudo udevadm trigger -s input` in a terminal window?
