Description Mariusz Libera 2022-08-15 17:14:56 UTC
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. plug in a mouse
1. set Acceleration profile to flat
2. xinput shows "libinput Accel Profile Enabled (353):   0, 1"
3. unplug the mouse
4. plug it in again

OBSERVED RESULT

System settings page still shows 'Flat' as selected option but xinput now shows "libinput Accel Profile Enabled (353):   1, 0"
You have to set it to Adaptive , click apply and then set it to Flat again and click apply again.

EXPECTED RESULT

Mouse is set to the acceleration profile selected in the settings page.

I have a logitech M185 cordless - unplugging and replugging USB dongle removes left-handedness from mouse (but not from system settings)

I have same problem with a bluetooth cordless mouse every time I log out of KDE

Tumbleweed BTW
Comment 3 Dave 2022-08-25 06:12:22 UTC
I have the same experience with any of my mice. It's particularly annoying because one of them is a SteelSeries Aerox Wireless 3, which, in an effort to save weight, requires fairly frequent charging. Every time I unplug the dongle to use the cord to charge (and keep the mouse useful), or when I reverse this, I have this experience. It didn't always use to be this way - I first logged this downstream in may '22 (https://bugs.gentoo.org/842219) after it had been happening for about a week.

bluetooth mouse seems to be fixed in current Tumbleweed

I think I am experiencing the same issue. Interestingly if the setting is not being respected, running `kcminit` will fix it for me. But then if I run `kcminit` again, the setting will break again.

Same issue for me on Gentoo after upgrading Plasma from 5.24.6 to 5.25.5.
xinput --list-props 11 | grep Accel

Everything OK:
libinput Accel Profile Enabled (298):   1, 0

Unplug/plug mouse (KVM switch in my monitor), mouse acceleration is now slower:
libinput Accel Profile Enabled (298):   0, 1

kcminit fixes it:
libinput Accel Profile Enabled (298):   1, 0

Is anyone able to reproduce this issue in Plasma 5.27 or 6?

It seems to work fine on Plasma 6 Wayland. I haven't tested on X11.
