I'm running Plasma 6 on Wayland and have the exact same problem with all
IntelliJ IDEs. The problem happens whenever I have an XWayland application
behind the IDE. My current “workaround” is to bring a native Wayland window to
the foreground before switching to the IDE so I never have an XWayland
application below it.
To illustrate it better (I hope bugzilla does not break the formatting),
imagine that I opened Dolphin maximized, then opened IntelliJ IDEA:
> |---- Dolphin ----|
> | |---- IntelliJ ----|
> | | |
> | | |
> |--| |
> |------------------|
IntelliJ is on top of Dolphin, so this problem never happens. Also, if there's
nothing behind it (i.e. only the desktop) the problem doesn't happen as well.
Now if I open Steam, which is runs on XWayland, It will go on top of IntelliJ:
> |---- Dolphin ----|
> | |---- IntelliJ ----|
> | | |---- Steam ----|
> | | | |
> |--| | |
> |--| |
> |------------------|
Anything that I type on Steam gets captured by the Steam window as expected,
but if I bring IntelliJ to the front:
> |---- Dolphin ----|
> | |---- Steam ----|
> | | |---- IntelliJ ----|
> | | | |
> |--| | |
> |--| |
> |------------------|
The *Icons-only Task Manager* shows that IntelliJ is focused, but anything that
I type or click on IntelliJ,
gets sent to Steam instead (which is very awkward). The same happens with
applications like Slack that also runs on XWayland:
I type on IntelliJ, but the keys go to Slack instead.
I notice this problem very often because it's not uncommon for me to have
IntelliJ, RustRover, PyCharm and WebStorm
all running at the same time, and I very often find myself trying to type on
IntelliJ only to find out that all
the keystrokes went to PyCharm (despite the Task Manager showing that IntelliJ
is focused).
Reproducing this problem is very tricky, there are days that I start and finish
my job without it ever happening,
but once it starts happening, not even closing all IDEA instances and opening
again fixes it. The only workaround is to either
minimize all windows and only have the desktop behind the IDE, or to have a
native Wayland application behind the IDE,
like Firefox for example:
> |---- Dolphin ----|
> | |---- Steam ----|
> | | |---- Firefox ----|
> | | | |---- IntelliJ ----|
> | | | | |
> |--| | | |
> |--| | |
> |--| |

This is something that never happened on Plasma 5 (at least for me), but TBF,
it's only happening with IntelliJ, no other
X11 application running under XWayland suffers from this, and Java applications
have always been problematic under XWayland.
One small problem I noticed was that when I launched Steam, IntelliJ was
forcefully brought to the foreground and RustRover got highlighted
in the Task Manager (as if it requested focus). This was the first time that
something stole the focus forcefully even
with the “Focus Stealing Prevention” set to “High”.
Note that I don't think “Focus Stealing Prevention” has anything to do with the
problem as I only changed this setting
a couple of days ago, but I've been experiencing this “input being sent to the
wrong window” since the official release
of Plasma 6 (only with IntelliJ tho).
