Hi Michele,
since it automagically switched to the new functionality, the whole layout
switching stops working. I still don't know why, but it is annoying.
I work around this as following. Whenever it stops working, I disable/enable
the keyboard layouts (I guess the applets backend gets restarted).
As you were overseeing the changes, can you advise how and where to debug?
Perhaps Petr can try next time and tell us if this is also the case on his
end with the multimedia keys.
In addition,
the keyboard model setting apparently stopped working, in my
case "Dell Latitude laptop" - some functions no longer work, e.g. Fn+F1
(for sleep) or Fn+F5 (for touchpad toggle) or Fn+Arrows (for brightness
level). Everything worked for over a decade before the upgrade.
Uhm.... there isn't any specific change that would make this stop working.
The keyboard sends keycode and TDE use them. Maybe you are missing some
package after the upgrade? Not sure about your distro, but look for
example for something with kmilo in its name.
