Bug ID: 514741
Summary: No device notifications unless device directly plugged
into laptop
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First master
Reported In:
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Notifications
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I have a Dell Latitude 7420 laptop running the OS/KDE environments listed
below.
In both environments, I can see (and hear) device notifications when plugging
in a, say, keyboard *directly* into the one USB-A port of the laptop. However,
if I plug the same device through some USB hub or the Dell WD-19 TB3 dock, I do
not get any notifications, neither the sound nor the toast. Regardless of not
getting the notification, I still can use the device after plugging it, so hub
and dock should work OK.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Plug in keyboard through USB hub attached to laptop.
OBSERVED RESULT
No device notification.
EXPECTED RESULT
Get device notification.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I tried debugging kded with gdb, but I got lost in the C++, TBH. If you can
give me hints on where the udev events (?) would be transformed into device
notifications (?) I could take a closer look. Building KDE/Plasma from scratch
is not feasible due to device constraints.
