I paused a video playing in mpv, then stepped away from the computer for a while, and it automatically locked the screen. After entering the password, pressing the Enter key produced no response. Clicking the button with the mouse also did nothing—only the button was flashing. Finally, I forced a shutdown using the physical power button and restarted the computer.
@ngraham Please add plasma tag .
Hi, @Kkk . Did you logged in after rebooting? Is it work now?
If no, please provide some details , like information about your PC , distro name and version, mpv version etc.
I had the same issue when updated kubuntu 24.04 to 25.10. Then forced shutdown and needed at least one more reboot to have everything working again.
After rebooting, I logged in. I’m posting this from the same computer.
