SUMMARY If I run "Unlock screen" via KDE connect/ssh the lock screen freezes for exactly 5 seconds (the clock stops, seconds freeze) and then the screen unlocks. If the mouse is moved during those 5 seconds the screen turns black. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Lock 2. Run "Unlock screen" via KDE connect OBSERVED RESULT Lockscreen freezes and unlocks after 5 seconds EXPECTED RESULT It should unlock immediately SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250626 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0 Qt Version: 6.9.1 Kernel Version: 6.15.3-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 8-Core Processor Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.3 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.

Thanks for the bug report. I'm sorry we weren't able to respond before now. I'm not able to reproduce this, attempting to unlock a machine running Plasma built from git-master, using KDE Connect on another machine I'm also not able to reproduce this when trying to unlock a machine running Plasma 6.4.5 If you're still experiencing this bug, can you attach system logs from the machine that's being unlocked - from just before and until just after the unlock attempt? Thanks.
Hi, the delay is now about ~2 seconds, originally it was exactly 5 (Plasma 6.4.5 now) Logs when delay occurs: Oct 02 22:24:49 openSUSE kdeconnectd[2135]: new capabilities for "Galaxy S24 FE" Oct 02 22:24:49 openSUSE kdeconnectd[2135]: kdeconnect.plugin.battery: No Primary Battery detected on this system.

How to reproduce: 1. Meta + L 2. Move the mouse so the password input field appears 3. Run unlock via KDE connect 4. Observe frozen screen/black screen if mouse is moved Important: this does not happen without step #2
Can reproduce with step 2 included
