STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start with one keyboard layout 2. Open the Keyboard KCM and add a second one 3. Click "Apply" OBSERVED RESULT Nothing changes in the System Tray. EXPECTED RESULT The Keyboard Layout applet should automatically appear. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Restarting plasmashell makes it appear.
git master wayland session, FWIW
Odd. I don't remember this bug, probably a regression. On new layout adding, there should be a Reconfigure signal triggering the applet..
FWIW, I didn't notice any issues with that while trying to reproduce bug 449405, so I probably can't reproduce this either.
Can someone else confirm? Can't reproduce it. Any chance to try on VM? What second layout are you adding?
I'll try in a VM and with my distro-provided session. In my built-from-source Plasma session, it happens no matter what the second layout is.
Found the bug. It only reproduces on Wayland, not on X11. This is consistent for me in my dev sessions, my distro-provided sessions, and in a VM: in all cases, the Keyboard Layout applet appears in the System Tray immediately after adding a second layout if I'm in an X11 session, but plasmashell must be restarted for it to appear if I'm in a Wayland session. Lowering priority since Wayland-only bugs can't be 15-minute bugs at this point in time.
I'm a permanent Wayland user and have never had this issue. Can you paste your ~/.config/kxkbrc? Can someone else reproduce?
Got the issue. I had following file which hid the issue for me: $ cat /etc/default/keyboard XKBLAYOUT="us,ru" XKBVARIANT="," BACKSPACE="guess" XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBOPTIONS="grp_led:scroll"
I have no such file on my system.
My observation is: On startup the layout icon in the system tray sometimes appears, mostly not. Consequently, this also applies to the shortcuts associated with the layouts. A work around is opening System Settings/Input Devices/Layouts mark a layout in the listing move layout order (up/down) apply Now the icon is in the system tray and the shortcut is working
