Public bug reported:
The KDE Lockscreen has a button in the lower left corner called "Virtual
Keyboard", I am unable to get it to work with maliit-keyboard and
plasma-keyboard and I'm not sure how to troubleshoot it further.
I tried both maliit-keyboard and plasma-keyboard, and made sure one of
those were selected as the active virtual keyboard in the KDE System
Settings for Virtual Keyboard.
Virtual Keyboard works in SDDM so the issue seems isolated to the KDE
Lockscreen.
