New to both KDE Plasma and wayland - how can I make KeepassXC AutoType work?
Been using keepassxc for years under X.org [http://X.org]. Haven’t had a problem in years. Yesterday I decided it’s time to use a full DE, and switch to wayland at the same time. Setting up my newly installed CachyOS, I’m having weirdly inconsistent troubles with keepassxc’s autotype feature: Sometimes it just works, sometimes not. Typing into terminal windows seems to be particularly tricky, but I also noticed inconsistencies between Falkon and Firefos. Sorry if it’s a bit vague, I can’t really pinpoint the issue (yet). I remember that typing into other app windows is more restricted on wayland (as is right) and I even vaguely remember that Plasma has settings for allowing certain apps…? I’ve also been reading keepassxc issues and it seems there will be a new feature coming out soon that deals with this elegantly, but not on my version, which is 2.7.12. TIA
