SUMMARY As title says, I cannot paste text copied from firefox to other apps. pasting it in Firefox work but not outside. also text copied from other apps can be pasted into Firefox but not other way around. Sorry, I can't reproduce this. but after some time it always happen. Workaround is to restart the Firefox and everything works fine for sometime until it happens again. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start Plasma Wayland session 2. Start Firefox as native wayland client with GDK_BACKEND=wayland 3. Browse for sometime OBSERVED RESULT Coping text in firefox and pasting in other app does not works EXPECTED RESULT Coping text in firefox and pasting in other app works SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS OS: ArchLinux (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2
I can also reproduce this... occasionally. It's frustrating when it happens (dragging also doesn't work), but it's pretty hard to make a reproducible case. It _starts_ to happen sometimes, at some point. Restarting klipper and/or plasmashell doesn't seem to help. Logout->login fixes it for a while. What info should be gathered, when it starts to happen, in order for this to get tracked down?
Ah, this. It's fixed in Plasma 5.22, thankfully.
Unfortunately, its still not fixed. I just bumb into this bug on 5.22.0
Are you sure Firefox is running as a native Wayland app? I can reproduce this issue when it's running as XWayland (it's Bug 424754) but not when it's running in native Wayland mode.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #4) > Are you sure Firefox is running as a native Wayland app Yes. I'm sure. Also I forcefully spend one day in swaywm to check if this bugs occurs in swaywm and it didn't
Darn. Works for me, FWIW.
Copying & pasting from Firefox 89 to another application (tried Signal in Flatpak, but also KMail) does not work for me, either. The text does not even appear in Klipper.

Other things I noticed: After the monitor goes into standby (i.e. long after the screen is locked), and then I move the mouse or press a key to make the monitor return to life, the screen is just black with the mouse cursor. Pressing keys or moving the mouse does not make it show the unlock screen. Maybe something crashed? But the usual "the lock screen crashed, press Alt+Fx to switch to a console" text does not show... And according to `systemctl --user`, all Plasma services are still running... BTW: I ran `kwriteconfig5 --file startkderc --group General --key systemdBoot true` to test the new systemd-based startup, as described in David's blog: https://blog.davidedmundson.co.uk/blog/plasma-and-the-systemd-startup/
For what it's worth, I have this problem now with Plasma 5.23.2. I select text in Firefox 93, hit Ctrl+C and it doesn't appear in Klipper. Some time ago it worked, so the issue seems to be transient, but it's definitely still there. Other issues noticeable at the moment: - Firefox does not show the global menu - I see several Firefox processes in `ps ax | grep firefox` , but `killall firefox` says "process not found": ``` > ps ax | grep firefox 7065 ?

Some more clipboard fixes have gone into Plasma 5.24; can anyone check with current git master or the Plasma 5.24 beta which is being released tomorrow? It's working 100% for me now.
