            Bug ID: 378093
           Summary: kscreenlocker-5.8.6 Impossible to enter password with
                    second monitor connected
           Product: kscreenlocker
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

KDE Plasma lockscreen stops to respond keyboard input when second monitor with
screen mirroring enabled. Keys like caps_lock etc work, but I can't enter
password in password field. Only way to enter password and unlock screen is
unplug second monitor. Tested with Nvidia official driver on Gentoo system.

Also, when screen mirroring is disabled you also can't enter password in
lockscreen on your second monitor with same reason. Only main monitor receive
keys input.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start KDE Plasma
2. Connect second monitor (in my case it is DVI main monitor plus HDMI second
monitor)
3. Configure screen mirroring between two monitors
4. Lock screen (press ctrl+alt+l)
5. When trying to enter password you will notice, that you can't enter your
password to unlock screen.
6. Unplug second monitor to be able to enter password and unlock your screen.

kde-plasma/kscreenlocker-5.8.5 is affected too.

Also reported in Gentoo bugtracker. Devs recommended to report upstream.
