Quick access immediately closes on Wayland (solved??)

After switching to Wayland last year, I set up the recommended 1password --quick-access keyboard shortcut in KDE plasma to handle the fact that the app's global hotkeys won't work under wayland. A few days ago, I noticed that the quick access bar would appear for a second and then immediately close out. After some testing, I realized that this was because the shortcuts set in the app are suddenly working and every time I hit 'ctrl+shift+space' --quick-access was getting called twice, resulting in an immediate toggle back to off. Removing my custom shortcut in KDE plasma fixed the issue. So it's working fine for me now, but I don't really know why, and I wanted to post this in case anyone runs into the same issue.

Maybe something changed with a recent Plasma 6 update (I honestly haven't been keeping up with plasma/wayland news), or maybe it's just something weird with my system's configuration. I didn't notice anything related in recent 1P release notes. I confirmed I'm still in an actual Wayland session and 1P is running under xwayland. xeyes is behaving like expected with this configuration. I confirmed the app shortcuts were actually working and this wasn't a 'Plasma firing shortcuts twice' issue by setting some new shortcuts for quick access & 'Show' in the app and verifying that they worked globally. It feels like this shouldn't be working, so I'm prepared to switch back to a custom shortcut if it 'breaks' again.

I'm running Plasma 6.1.3

    Hi @mcdoogs,

    Thanks for sharing your findings! It's possible there was a recent change with Plasma or Wayland as there is growing support for both.

    Should this issue reoccur, feel free to contact us and we can look into it further.

    As of Plasma 6.2.3 & 1password 8.10.52, it's back to the expected behavior on Wayland (requiring a KDE hotkey for quick access).

    After upgrading to version 8.10.52 Quick Access is not working anymore for me in EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma 6.2.3. Before upgrading, it worked.

    Trying to find a solution, I stumbled about the settings dialogue. It seems there is no possibility anymore to change the keyboard shortcuts for opening 1Password and Quick Access. I'm 99,99% sure that there was the possibility till the latest update.

    Am I wrong? 🤔
