Omarchy
ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.
Lock screen password field loses keyboard focus after DPMS wake

Original report
What happened
After the display wakes from DPMS-off (screen blanked) while the Omarchy session lock (Quickshell WlSessionLock / LockView.qml) is active, the password field is not keyboard-focused. Typing does nothing until the mouse is clicked once — only then does the field accept keyboard input.
What was expected
The password field should already have keyboard focus when the display wakes, so the password can be typed immediately (as it does immediately after first locking, before the display blanks).
Steps to reproduce
- Let the system idle past
idle.lock(default screen lock timeout) so the session lock engages and the display blanks (DPMS off). - Wake the display (move the mouse or press a key —
misc:key_press_enables_dpmsis alreadytrueon this system, so a keypress does wake the display). - Try typing the password immediately: no characters appear in the field.
- Click anywhere with the mouse: the field now accepts keyboard input normally.
Suspected root cause
LockView.qml already calls passwordInput.forceActiveFocus() in Component.onCompleted and whenever inputEnabled changes, so the QML side looks correct. The mismatch seems to be at the Hyprland compositor level: input:mouse_refocus defaults to true (alongside input:follow_mouse = 1), which re-evaluates window/surface focus based on pointer state. This appears to interact badly with the exclusive keyboard focus that the ext-session-lock-v1 surface (WlSessionLockSurface) should hold across a DPMS off/on cycle — the surface loses real (compositor-level) keyboard focus even though Qt's internal activeFocus state on the TextInput is untouched.
Workaround
Setting the following in ~/.config/hypr/input.lua fixes it:
hl.config({
input = {
mouse_refocus = false,
},
})After this change, waking from a DPMS-off lock screen accepts keyboard input immediately, no click required.

## What happened
After the display wakes from DPMS-off (screen blanked) while the Omarchy session lock (Quickshell `WlSessionLock` / `LockView.qml`) is active, the password field is **not keyboard-focused**. Typing does nothing until the mouse is clicked once — only then does the field accept keyboard input.
## What was expected
The password field should already have keyboard focus when the display wakes, so the password can be typed immediately (as it does immediately after first locking, before the display blanks).
## Steps to reproduce
1. Let the system idle past `idle.lock` (default screen lock timeout) so the session lock engages and the display blanks (DPMS off).
2. Wake the display (move the mouse or press a key — `misc:key_press_enables_dpms` is already `true` on this system, so a keypress does wake the display).
3. Try typing the password immediately: no characters appear in the field.
4. Click anywhere with the mouse: the field now accepts keyboard input normally.
## Suspected root cause
`LockView.qml` already calls `passwordInput.forceActiveFocus()` in `Component.onCompleted` and whenever `inputEnabled` changes, so the QML side looks correct. The mismatch seems to be at the Hyprland compositor level: `input:mouse_refocus` defaults to `true` (alongside `input:follow_mouse = 1`), which re-evaluates window/surface focus based on pointer state. This appears to interact badly with the exclusive keyboard focus that the `ext-session-lock-v1` surface (`WlSessionLockSurface`) should hold across a DPMS off/on cycle — the surface loses real (compositor-level) keyboard focus even though Qt's internal `activeFocus` state on the `TextInput` is untouched.
## Workaround
Setting the following in `~/.config/hypr/input.lua` fixes it:
```lua
hl.config({
input = {
mouse_refocus = false,
},
})
```
After this change, waking from a DPMS-off lock screen accepts keyboard input immediately, no click required.

- `omarchy debug` was not available on this installed version (4.0.3-1) — `omarchy commands --all` has no `debug` entry — so no automated diagnostic log/URL is attached. Happy to run it and update the issue if it's the wrong command name for this version.
