Apologies if this is easier than I’m setting it out to be, not in the right place, or anything’s incorrect.
When using Moonlight, a remote desktop client, I’m unable to capture system inputs, regardless of any setting the application has.
Whilst I haven’t had the opportunity to test other remote clients, or VMs, at least at some point, this was an issue in other applications across distros using Wayland, as well.
Just as an example of where I’ve had the most difficulty, if you alt-tab whilst streaming, it’ll alt-tab on the client’s (i.e. Budgie’s) end, not the host’s, which can be quite debilitating to workflow.
This seems to be an “issue” due to how Wayland functions, with applications not providing a native way to do so, and whilst I’ve seen a variety of workarounds depending on the DE, I haven’t figured out a way to do so on Ubuntu Budgie.
To be quite frank, I’m not actually sure how, or why, said workarounds actually fix it, but the two major ways I’ve seen either involve allowing XWayland to key grab, and whitelisting the application, or having the application ignore global shortcuts, which (?) allows it to capture the keystrokes without the client OS intercepting.
Seeing how the particular program I’m having issues with is running natively in Wayland, is there a way to set it to ignore global shortcuts, or, otherwise, to fix this problem as a whole?
