How do I never see this again?

you’ve got something connected that’s triggering the prompt, and kde on wayland issue is making it pop up over and over again. i think this one is as old as plasma 6 itself is.

try disconnecting all unnecessary input devices when playing. just usb mouse and keyboard. wireless is fine if it uses its own non-bt dongle.

or if it won’t open up a different can o’worms, switch to x11 for gaming sessions.

I’m actually using a ps5 controller and have mapped the dpad left and right to use keyboard input for a mod. If I don’t use those buttons for 15 minutes or so I get kicked out of game with this garbage popup, every time! At his point I’m fed up and ready to leave KDE. Been using KDE for 6 years and have seen so many poor design decisions but you could always go into the settings and fix it. This I guess has no fix.

Are you using Steam Input Settings to map those dpad buttons? If so, try setting that back to default, then use AntiMicroX to map keyboard input to your dpad instead.

The problem with that is steam lets you configure per game. I have different keybindings depending on what game I’m playing. Not a bad suggestion to try though, would really help nail down whats partially causing the issue, steam input or the PS5 controller. Although as sp3tr4l pointed out there is probably an issue with how windowManagers are handling wayland security protocol’s, penquin said he is getting this on gnome too.
