Description Martin Ellison 2023-08-09 03:01:47 UTC
after a delay, keyboard ignores the first character that was typed


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. wait a few minutes
2. try to type using the keyboard
Actual Results:  
first character is missing

Expected Results:  
input appears as typed

previously raised as bug 2021371 under F35 and closed under end of life. Problem persists.
No idea which component is causing this.

Maybe something is going to sleep?

Please run `sudo libinput record` (in libinput-utils.rpm) and then try to reproduce the issue. That tool will print *kernel* events as received by userspace so it'll help you narrow down if the issue is in the kernel or in userspace somewhere. If you type and the event does not show up, then it's happening in the kernel.
