Bug ID: 512806
Summary: Global Menu accelerators (Alt+Letter) and stop working
after losing focus once
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First master
Reported In:
Platform: CachyOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

Despite shortcuts not working, when alt pressed letters are still underlined.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Start any Qt application that utilizes the Global Menu (e.g., Dolphin, Kate).
Ensure the Global Menu widget is present on the panel.
Use an Alt+Letter shortcut (accelerator) to open a menu item (e.g., Alt+F for
File). Result: It works correctly.
Click away from the menu (e.g., click on the application workspace) to close
the menu and return focus to the app.
Attempt to use the Alt+Letter shortcut again (e.g., Alt+F).
OBSERVED RESULT The shortcut is ignored; the menu does not open. Note: Pressing
the Alt key alone still correctly emphasizes/underlines the letters in the
Global Menu widget (visual cues appear), but the specific key combination to
trigger them fails. Switching to another window and back reset the state,
allowing it to work once more.
EXPECTED RESULT The Global Menu should respond to Alt+Letter shortcuts
consistently, regardless of whether it was focused or unfocused previously.
