Bug ID: 493956
Summary: On Wayland, when alt-tabbing or clicking between apps,
keystrokes sometimes mistakenly delivered to previous
or new app
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.5
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nyanpas...@tuta.io
Target Milestone: ---
When I alt-tab or click between apps on KWin Wayland on an old computer,
sometimes a previous Ctrl-C operation gets delivered as a "c" keystroke to a
new app, or the Tab keystroke gets delivered to the previous app (even though
Alt was pressed first).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot into KWin Wayland.
2. Start apps and type into them.
3. Alt-tab between them.
OBSERVED RESULT
Randomly keystrokes get delivered to the wrong app.
EXPECTED RESULT
Keystrokes do not get delivered to the wrong app.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
I have encountered this problem on Fedora 40 on Ivy Bridge iGPU (slow), and
Arch Linux on Ryzen CPU and RX 570 GPU (fast). I thought it could be a keyboard
switch bounce issue, but I encountered both the erroneous tab insertion and
Ctrl-C delivered to the wrong app on both computers with different keyboards
(my Ryzen PC's mechanical keyboard has never acted up in this way, in extensive
usage on X11 and Windows, and just now I remember I let go of Ctrl+C *before*
switching apps but a `c` keystroke was delivered *after* I released the key).
