Bug ID: 479290
Summary: Find Device plugin non-functional when locked
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: android-application

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
On my computer (running Debian 12 stable KDE plasma, but also verified with a
version running on Debian 11 stable with cinnamon), when I am already connected
to the other device (in my case, a Pixel 7 pro running Android 14), and I try
to run "find my device" from my laptop, the sound works when the phone is
unlocked (battery optimizations have been turned off, all permissions have been
granted to KDE connect, and display over other apps is allowed), but when the
phone is locked (and the screen is off), the find my phone feature is not
playing sounds.
The phone does not have to be unlocked to play a sound, but the screen MUST be
on. KDE Connect is able to contact the device as I am able to browse the phone
filesystem and open files with the phone locked and screen turned off. On top
of this I am still able to control multimedia (though this works, the sound
slider has a seizure and causes the audio level for my sound settings on my
phone to also have a seizure, and also not an option if I have the multimedia
volume too low).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. connect and verify connected devices (1 phone, and 1 other device that can
use the "find device" plugin)
2. go to the designated phone, lock and turn off the screen
3. try and "find device"
OBSERVED RESULT
no volume, just the notification
EXPECTED RESULT
loud volume just like when the device has its screen on
