packages fcitx5, fcitx5-qt5 and fcitx5-configtool completely removed
I’m able to switch keyboard layout as before.
Problem with shortcut for Klipper is raised.
I’ve been trying to apply solution from topics
but it doesn’t help.
sudo showkey
shows next:
kb mode was ?UNKNOWN?

since the X server is also reading /dev/console ]
press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...

Reassign the key - but keep in mind - Meta+L - is usually used by kwin to lock the screen session - so you are likely looking for conflicting assignments.
It is imposslble to say where and what - I suggest you reset your plasma configuration.
In System Settings / Keyboard / Shortcuts you can type meta+L in the search box to see if there is a global assignment to that shortcut. You have to literally type meta+L (trying to use the meta key will cause the shortcut action to happen!).
In my system it is assigned to Lock session but yours may be different. If there is a global assignment try unsettling before altering the clip board shortcut.
I don’t remember it being different. If you launch the keyboard shortcuts and filter ‘Meta’, you can then select anything that’s on the list and see what shortcuts exist. You have to be careful (even with ‘logical’ choices) with clashes though.
My train of thought for advanced clipboard operations stem from the original Ctrl shortcuts V = paste using Meta instead of Ctrl for ‘alternative’ shortcuts.
To show the clipboard items at mouse position, I have Meta+V for CopyQ, and the next alternative to Ctrl+V being Meta+B = Show Klipper at mouse position.
I think Meta+L = Lock and Meta+Alt+L = kbd Layout so basically I’m not sympathetic to the idea of changing those ‘defaults’.
I’ll try to order a custom ‘Meat’ keycap to test this theory however, I did find that Meta_M = Mute Volume for Amarok - you should check in your keyboard settings, not in the clipboard settings.
The sane default (if you have no other clipboard) is set at Meta+V - set it, test it, and be done with that. Problems sometimes occur setting shortcuts from plasma applets (I’m currently having trouble setting Meta_M in Klipper, but no trouble with the settings).
Sorry, I mistyped. I’m trying to get work Meta+V. This shortcut assigned only to plasmashell. Audio Volume has Meta+Volume Mute, that’s why it in the list.
Actually, something I just noticed (is this new?) in the shortcuts dialog, you can EXPORT your current settings and you can do a one click ‘Defaults’ which I assume resets them all.
Did all your recommendations, but problem still here.
Also was trying change global shortcut Meta+V to custom one Alt+V(as it’s free and not assigned to any other action), but still doesn’t work.
I think problem somehow related to removed packages fcitx5, fcitx5-qt5 and fcitx5-configtool. Before I had them, shortcuts were working, but after removing stop.
I purged them. I also reset my configurations when I upgraded to plasma 6.2 - yet you say you’re having the same issue with a new USER, you really did test this didn’t you?
Well, I found a solution here Custom Shortcuts not working after update and now everything works as expected.
In my case, problem was in file ~/.config/kxkbrc, as I figured it out by replacing files from old configuration to new.
however, I did find that Meta_M = Mute Volume for Amarok - you should check in your keyboard settings, not in the clipboard settings.
