Bug ID: 366625
Summary: Single event reported through multiple devices is not
coalesced (on Wayland)
Product: kwin
Version: git master
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: matthias.fauconn...@gmail.com
On my laptop, KEY_POWER is reported both through event4 (Power Button) and
event6 (Keyboard).
A single press triggers events from both devices.
KWin forwards both events to applications without discarding duplicates.
On XWayland, events are reported once so it seems to coalesce.
This issue is important on compact keyboards where it is common to remap the
power key, for example to Delete.
I see two options to solve:
- Ignore Power button devices as they are not relevant for Wayland input
- Discard additional events for same key at same time from different devices
Reproducible: Always
