Hi,

I'm sorry it's taking so long to respond, but on the one hand I've been very
busy these weeks and on the other hand to be able to test the bug I had to
reinstall the KVM switch that was causing the problem (in the end, after
searching and searching on Amazon and trying several models, I found one where
the problem did not occur).

Well, I ran the test again, and the result is still the same: when I switch to
Windows PC, the switch is quite fast. But when I switch from it to the Linux
computer which has the latest version of KDE (at the moment I have KDE Plasma
5.26.4 and Linux kernel 6.1rc8), the monitor stops receiving the signal and
goes dark for about 1 minute, until it gets it back magically. Also, when the
screen recovers, the applications that were open have remained frozen, they do
not respond, you have to minimize them and then they refresh and you can
continue using them.

I don't know if it could be related, but a while ago I also opened a bug for
something similar (Bug 453557), if you use a bidirectional HDMI emulator
(https://www.amazon.com/EVanlak-Passthrough-Generrtion-Eliminated-Thunderbolt
/dp/B07YMTMMH5) with a KVM switch to make switching between screens instant,
works fine in KDE except when you put the computer to sleep, when you wake it
up the screen doesn't react, it goes black, you have to press Ctrl + F1 to
switch sessions in Linux, then the screen reacts and you can go back to KDE by
pressing Ctrl + F2.

The curious thing about these two problems is that, as I already mentioned at
the time, this does not happen with the GNOME desktop using Wayland.

Regards.
