Bug ID: 480252
Summary: Fullscreen windows stop other windows from drawing
(RC1)
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.92.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Playing a game or video in full screen on a monitor can break video output on
another monitor, the screen stops refreshing until I un-fullscreen the other
app.
This happens across browsers and games, but notably doesn't happen if I use 2
Firefox windows on different screens.
Firefox should be running native Wayland but I am not sure the others involved
are native Wayland.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
(Other situations cause, but this is reliable)
1. Play video in firefox on screen 2 (Used youtube)
2. Play video in chrome on screen 3 (Used youtube)
3. Maximize Chrome's video.
OBSERVED RESULT
Firefox's video freezes (and sometimes becomes unresponsive to input) but the
audio continues.
EXPECTED RESULT
Both videos continue playing.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch/RC1/updated system to be safe.
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.92.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.248.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This has also been observed with chrome video on screen 3 and a game fullscreen
on screen 2, both xWayland I believe
