SUMMARY
Related: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1672944#c26
Kwin seems to have a capability to capture mouse cursor when doing screen
capture through pipewire (it works well in obs). However, it does not work for
webrtc in either Firefox or Chrome. It seems that kwin is not advertising the
availability of the embedded cursor mode so webrtc just ignore this
functionality.
See the webrtc code:
https://webrtc.googlesource.com/src/+/refs/heads/main/modules/desktop_capture/linux/base_capturer_pipewire.cc#1035
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start KDE Wayland session
2. Start Firefox
3. Start a a webrtc screen capture through pipewire
OBSERVED RESULT
No mouse cursor is captured
EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse cursor should be captured
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
