SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. In Settings>Input>Keyboard, choose layout "de(deadgraveacute)" and activate the option "altwin(swap_lalt_lwin)" 2. Exit session or reboot computer 3. Log in OBSERVED RESULT The global shortcuts do not work (Meta+... for example) with the new position of the modifiers. EXPECTED RESULT The shorcuts should work with the new position of the modifiers. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20200528 KDE Plasma : 5.18.5 (using X11) KDE Frameworks: 5.70.0 Qt: 5.14.1 Kernel: 5.6.14-1-default ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Running "killall kglobalaccel5 && (kglobalaccel5 &)" make the shortcuts work again. My interpretation is that kglobalaccel5 initialize its modifiers and keys to grab with the general computer's XKB settings, not the ones of the current Plasma session. It may be a race condition with the application of these settings and kglobalaccel. The solution cannot be to change the computer-wide XKB settings because we are several persons using this computer, each with different layout options.
setxkbmap -print xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwertz)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete" }; xkb_symbols { include "pc+de(sundeadkeys)+inet(evdev)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)" }; xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" }; };
