Lag & or Freeze after kde connect automatically pauses due to a phone call

I’ve noticed something. My desktop will slightly freeze, and not render things correctly if I answer a phone call. It is an intermittent issue. (when it happens I may or may not be playing media)

And things do not always happen the same way:

  • Cursor pointer shape will refuse to change
  • Taskbar becomes unresponsive.

When this happens KDE notifications will have some pause to them (ie they stop coming in). And then when the desktop unfreezes I will get a rush of notifications from kde.

It’s not a big problem. Just a minor annoyance. And It doesn’t happen the same way each time.

The problem will last for 5-10 seconds and then I’m right back to business.

I’ve noticed this problem on Opensuse tw and Kubuntu. (always has happened).

Anyone have some insight as to why this may happen?
