Bug ID: 513672
Summary: Regression: Screen blanking/going off pauses media
playback
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.5.4
Reported In:
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Screen locking
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When the screen gets turned off, media playback is paused.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start some media (tested: spotify (flatpak), amarok, youtube video in a
browser (firefox))
2. Lock the screen (Meta+L), or wait for the screen to lock, sound is still
playing
3. Press Esc to blank the screen, or wait for the screen to turn off if it's
configured to do so in Power Management > Display and Brigtness
OBSERVED RESULT
Media stops playing (pauses). In case of Spotify I can control it from my
phone, but when the screen is off pressing Play on the phone doesn't resume the
playback on the PC like it usually does. I observe the same issue also when
switching to the text console (media stops playing, I cannot make it resume
until I go back to the Plasma session).
EXPECTED RESULT
Media should continue playing when the screen is off. This used to work
recently (before the last update?) I would say definitely 2 weeks ago / plasma
6.5.3.
