Bug ID: 520263
Summary: UI doesn't reappear on typing after being idle, only
on mouse movement
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-login-manager
Version First 6.6.90
Reported In:
Platform: KDE Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

DESCRIPTION
On a fresh boot, the PLM UI (user picture and name, password entry field and
session management buttons) does not reappear on typing after disappearing due
to being idle.
Only mouse movement makes it reappear. The (invisibly) typed text seems to land
in the text field though.
These tree work as expected:
- Lockscreen (invoked by Meta+L)
- Screen after logging out the user (Steps: Boot, log in, log out, wait for UI
do disappear, type → UI appears)
- User switching screen
But I think they are a completely different piece of software, correct?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot
2. Do not touch the mouse and keyboard until the UI faded out
3. Type something
OBSERVED RESULT
The UI doesn't come back, only when moving the mouse.
Text was being entered, the text field for the password is full.
EXPECTED RESULT
The UI comes back, and I can see what I type.
