Disable-while-typing doesn't work on Surface Pro Type Cover #2030
Description
There are 2 devices even though there is only 1 keyboard:
❯ sudo libinput list-devices
Device: Microsoft Surface 045E:09AE
Kernel: /dev/input/event18
Id: host:045e:09ae
Group: 6
Seat: seat0, default
Capabilities: keyboard pointer
Device: Microsoft Surface 045E:09B0 Keyboard
Kernel: /dev/input/event17
Id: host:045e:09b0
Group: 7
Seat: seat0, default
Capabilities: keyboard
Pressing a key triggers the former instead of latter:
k event18 KEYBOARD_KEY +0.092s *** (-1) released
And this is not matched by libinput quirks:
[Microsoft Surface Keyboard]
MatchName=Microsoft Surface *Keyboard
AttrKeyboardIntegration=internal
The same ID & the issue is seen on Surface Laptop 3 as well: #67 (comment)
- Why 2 devices?
- Is there a way to group devices together instead of marking them as internal? The type covers can be detached after all so it's kinda like a peripheral.
libinput pairs touchpads and keyboards for the disable-while-typing feature.
