For me, it actually got worse.
On the lockscreen, the fingerprint unlock is only possible on about 25% of
attempts on Plasma 6.3.2

I tried to follow the opensuse documentation for fingerprint unlocking:
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Using_fingerprint_authentication

I ran sudo pam-config --update --fprintd which didn't fix anything and my
configs in /etc/pam.d/kde looks like this:
#%PAM-1.0
# This service is only used by kcheckpass for unlocking,
# so only auth is really relevant here.
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password
auth     sufficient     pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok
auth     sufficient     pam_fprintd.so

I also tried this
#%PAM-1.0
# This service is only used by kcheckpass for unlocking,
# so only auth is really relevant here.
auth                    sufficient      pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth
nullok
auth                    sufficient      pam_fprintd.so
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password

But that didn't change anything.
/var/lib/pam.d/kde-fingerprint looks like this
#%PAM-1.0
# for fingerprint
auth     required       pam_fprintd.so
auth     include        common-auth
account  include        common-account
password include        common-password

fingerprint authentication works perfectly every time for sudo and polkit, but
not the lockscreen.
I guess it is also worth mentioning that I'm on openSUSE Kalpa now, which is
immutable, but uses the same packages as Tumbleweed. This means that
/var/lib/pam.d/kde looks different to the /etc version, but the /etc version
should have precendence, right? I'm also wondering why it works sometimes and
sometimes not.
I also already had the case (multiple times actually) that I couldn't unlock my
screen AT ALL, it didn't accept my password nor my fingerprint - so I had to
reboot my machine, which is very annoying. Should I open a new bug for the
latter issue?
Do you need any other configs? :)
