Bug#1112472: kde-plasma-desktop: kde Launcher menu does not open with Meta key shortcut after cancelling shutdown/restart
Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:162
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: victorpan2017@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
SUMMARY
Normally, using the Meta key opens the launcher/start menu. If you try to
either shutdown or restart from the launcher, then cancel, pressing the Meta
key no longer opens the launcher after that.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Meta key
2. Press either the restart or shutdown buttons in the launcher.
3. Cancel the shutdown or restart
4. Press Meta key
OBSERVED RESULT
Meta key does not open launcher
EXPECTED RESULT
Meta key should open launcher
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma 6.3.6
KDE Frameworks 6.13.0
Qt 6.8.2
Kernel 6.12.41+deb13-amd64
X11
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Opening the launcher by clicking on the icon does not fix the issue.
- Locking and unlocking, fixes it
- Restarting fixes it
- Launching another app that uses the Meta key as part of its shortcut combo
fixes it (e.g. meta + E to open dolphin)
