SUMMARY

When in full desktop zoom with text cursor tracking enabled, the cursor tracking does not work properly in Konsole. Whenever a key is pressed the zoomed area jumps to the center of the desktop.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Desktop effects -> Zoom -> Enable text cursor tracking
2. QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON=1
3. Zoom in
4. Open Konsole and start typing

OBSERVED RESULT
The zoomed area jumps to the center of the desktop when typing

EXPECTED RESULT
The text cursor should stay in the center of the zoomed area
