--- Comment #2 from Thaddee Tyl <[email protected]> ---
I had this exact issue, and I think I know why it was not reproducible, which
is why I write this in case someone else comes over this issue as well.

Back in the X11 days, I relied on /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose for
compose key combinations.

At some point, a KDE upgrade migrated me to Wayland, and the compose key
combinations that I was used to, ceased to work.

The reason? Wayland KDE reads $HOME/.XCompose, not
/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose, which contains way more key
combinations.

The workaround?
cat /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose >>~/.XCompose

That said, my personal preference is to convert the greek combos to explicit
compose key combinations (eg. Compose+g+a for α):
</usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose sed 's/^<dead_greek>/<Multi_key>
<g>/' | grep '^<Multi_key>' >~/.XCompose
