[plasma-mediacenter] [Bug 418288] Keyboard multimedia keys are unstable
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418288 --- Comment #22 from Lynn --- (In reply to Jan Klos from comment #21) Looking into it a bit more, the issue is definitely with the way KDE selects which player to send the MPRIS commands to. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/tree/master/libkmpris?ref_type=heads It looks as if this has been overhauled in Plasma 6, as this directory isn't in my 5.27.10 source code on my computer. Hopefully so. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The media player widget is just an interface for MPRIS, nothing more. Most likely what is happening is that by removing/adding the media player widget you are changing which application the MPRIS passes the media keys to. There are many bug reports for this issue in regards to MPRIS on other bugtrackers. It isn't really a KDE issue, so this bug isn't something that can be fixed by KDE developers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Because of the randomness, I have never been able to figure out what is happening, and just thought I was going insane. Now that I have found a workaround (disabling the chrome flag #hardware-media-key-handling) my overall life frustration level has dropped. LifeTip: Randomly dropping key-presses is a good way to agitate a human over a long period of time. If there is any debugging info devs need I'd be glad to help. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I've found it happens most when I have a video playing on my HTPC and I play a quick video on my fedora machine. I guess it gets confused and then just stops working. I use Firefox and do not have the plasma integration installed. It was causing a host of other problems so I removed it a while ago. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This line appears to be responsible for passing through media control events: https://github.com/KDE/plasma-browser-integration/blob/master/extension/extension-mpris.js#L164. If it fails, the browser will not see that media control event AIUI. I set a breakpoint on that line and not until did the music change. FYI, there is an option to merely turn off media integration in the addon itself -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It is highly annoying to have to stop what I'm doing to do the work around every couple hours. I'm on 37 now and it's still a problem.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418288 Andrey Babkin changed: What|Removed |Added CC||babkin.and...@gmail.com --- Comment #10 from Andrey Babkin --- The same on Kubuntu, media player control button (play/pause) just stops working occasionally. Checked media control button functionality with xev, play/pause media button press is being detected by the system (keycode 172 (keysym 0x1008ff14, XF86AudioPlay)). Also no luck with adding or removing the media control widget to the tray or Task manager panel. "Shortcuts->Media Controller->Play/Pause media playback" is set to "Media play" (tried to reassign it to some other combination with no luck). Orlando's solution with notification settings also didn't work out for me. Looking forward for this issue to be resolved as the ability to play/pause videos running in the background is critical for me. I often follow tutorials on youtube etc and need to stop them while being focused on other windows. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418288 --- Comment #9 from Orlando Rodriguez --- Update: After juggling with configurations, I noticed that the issue is related to the option: "Keep popup open during progress" in the notification settings. I just disabled that option and it looks like my issues with the volume are gone (in both cases, with Spotify and with youtube videos). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418288 --- Comment #8 from Orlando Rodriguez --- Well, Just to add...after watching youtube videos for some minutes and the keys stop to work again, definitely, the media widget also has soemthing to do here. After removing it and add it again the problem stops for a longer time. This issue is very annoying in KDE, I hope this gets a better attention, because I have not found any workaround to fix it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418288 --- Comment #7 from Orlando Rodriguez --- After trying several things, I have noticed that this behavior happens everytime a notification comes and the notification is active. Once the notification is closed manually or automatically (by default 5 seconds), media buttons start to work again. I replicated the issue several times using spotify (which by default send a notification every time a song is changed) so, I just change a song and try to use my volume buttons in that exact moment when the notification is launched. In my case, the problem I see is related to the notification widget and the audio widget. I haven´t had any luck with the media widget. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I use a dedicated media keys keyboard and wondered if something was wrong with it until I tried the workaround of disabling the applet and enabling it again. I use KDEConnect and control media playing on a HTPC from my kde desktop as well as strawberry to play music, lastly with the occasional video on the local machine.

One thing not yet mentioned is that removing the "Media Player" widget, then adding it again seems to temporarily fix the issue, so I would guess it's on issue with that applet?

They randomly can work or not. I have detected that the media keys usually stop working when a notification is active. After closing the notification they start to work again.
