Emulator Issues #13501
closedKeyboard input for any controller type stops working after game window loses focus for the first time
0%
Description
Game Name?
Any game
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
After the game window loses focus for the first time, keyboard input for any controller type stops working.
No inputs are recieved by the game, and the "movie" input display shows no buttons being pressed.
[Reproduction steps here]
- Dolphin is started
- Load any iso file
- Keyboard inputs work for an indefinite amount of time
- "Main" Dolphin window is focused in order to change graphics settings or similar
- After switching back to the game window, keyboard inputs stop working entirely for any controller type plugged in on any port
- The emulation can be stopped and restarted (even another game can be chosen), and keyboard input no longer works
- Interestingly, the controller configuration test window can still see the keyboard input
- The only way to get keyboard inputs to work again is to exit Dolphin and start from step 1.
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
Yes
5.0-20347
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
AMD CPU 5800X
RTX 3070 GPU
32 GB RAM
Linux 6.6.19
KDE Plasma 5.27.11
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
Feel free to ask me for any additional information or logs.
