--- Comment #17 from Stefan Burnicki <stefan.burni...@burnicki.net> ---
I have the same problem. Thanks to the last comments I could also confirm that
I don't have the problem with a new user, only the existing one that migrated
$HOME for like 2 years.

I used ibus once (can't recall why, maybe when trying stuff with fingerprint?),
but it's disabled now. I tried to use wayland with and without it, same result:
works for new user, does not work for existing user.

"journalctl --user-unit plasma-kwin_wayland --boot 0" also contains the
following suspicious lines:

kwin_wayland_wrapper[135634]: (WW) Option "-listen" for file descriptors is
deprecated
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135634]: Please use "-listenfd" instead.
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135634]: (WW) Option "-listen" for file descriptors is
deprecated
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135634]: Please use "-listenfd" instead.
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135670]: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135670]: > Warning:          Unsupported maximum keycode
708, clipping.
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135670]: >                   X11 cannot support keycodes
above 255.
kwin_wayland_wrapper[135670]: Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
kwin_wayland[135583]: QtDBus: cannot relay signals from parent
QObject(0x564c8ae63d50 "") unless they are emitted in the object's thread
QThread(0x564c8ab>

but so it does for the new user where the input works properly.

Running "sudo libinput debug-events" and pressing some keys:
 event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +1.307s       *** (-1) pressed
s event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +1.339s      *** (-1) pressed
d event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +1.387s      *** (-1) released
 event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +1.475s       *** (-1) released
 event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +2.195s       KEY_LEFTMETA (125) pressed
 event8   KEYBOARD_KEY            +2.331s       KEY_LEFTMETA (125) released

Interestingly most keys show as ***(-1), but left meta does not. However,
shortcuts like "Alt+Tab" and "Alt+F2" still work, even if the output shows ***
(-1) for those keys. With the other user and in X11 session, the output is the
same.

What also seems weird to me: It's not like the keyboard input is the only thing
not working properly: When I open e.g. systemsettings, I can focus an input
field and see the blinking cursor. But as soon as I press a key, both the input
field and the window seem to lose focus. And even if I click back into the
input field, I see a blue focus on the input, but I don't see a blinking cursor
and the window still seems to not be focused (telling from the window
decoration color). 

Any ideas if this could hint to a different problem?

Otherwise I would try to copy parts of my home folder to the new user and see
when it stops working to narrow down the problem.
