Causes bluedevil to stop updating device status
This issue started a month ago and took me a long while to find the cause. Bluedevil stopped updating bluetooth device status. ie: when I connect my headset it will keep being listed as not connected, it will only update the status when I restart plasma I verified that other bluetooth apps(blueman and blueberry) worked fine. I Tried downgrading bluedevil without success. I found out that in a new user without anything configured bluedevil would work normally, but as I kept configuring the system It would eventually return to the buggy behavior. I was able identify that the specific point in which the bug would start happening is when adding this applet. right now if I add it the bug will start and will stop exactly when I remove it. So I'm thinking, maybe they did an optimization somewhere in kde, for the system to not need to constantly probe for the bluetooth status, maybe they started listening to some event and somehow this widget block this event propagation or something like that. At the moment I'm able to avoid the bug by not having this applet active, which is really bad because it is one of my must have applets Anyway, wanted to know if there are more people having this problem and maybe we can find some workaround.
I'm using kde plasma 5.27.6 on Manjaro
Hello @winiciuscota , thanks for letting me know that. I definitely need to look into it. Moreover, on my system it freezes plasma shell if I click over the widget. Hopefully I'll find the time next week to look into this! I'll keep you posted.
