Keyboard control is managed by a combination of gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-session and with a bit of budgie desktop poking those bits
BCC is just the means to visualise the shortcuts that are stored in dconf.
It's worth testing on a new user account if you have the same issue.
If it works correctly then you will have a screwed dconf database. Suggest delete and relogin (in the ~/.dconf folder)
@fossfreedom Thanks for your reply.

This is simply false. BCC (Budgie Control Center) allows one to inspect all existing Budgie related keyboard shortcuts as well as remove or update them:

Sure, I’ll check.

For me, it seems to be ~/.conf/dconf
. I’ll try deleting or rather moving it as I’m sure it’s storing other configuration also which would mean I’d need to start over configuring my system. IIRC, it’s schema based. Isn’t there a less distructive way, e.g. validate the schema instead of nuking the whole thing?
I can confirm that it stopped working around a month ago. It must had something todo with some non-budgie related updates in Archlinux (gnome? mutter43?). Two things stopped working:
For both I use workarounds now:
First I thought it was something in my setup, but multiple machines had the same problem. I also could reproduce both it in a vanilla Archlinux VM where I just installed budgie-desktop.
A few days ago, budgie-desktop and budgie-control-center were updated in Archlinux, I did not yet update, but maybe these updates fix it.
Besides the Themeing thread I linked above, both things broke quite unnoticed by anyone - that worries me a bit. I hoped that its just Archlinux that broke something and not many Archlinux Users use Budgie and therefore no one noticed. I also thought about switching away from budgie, but the workarounds work quite okay.
Edit: I updated both to the newest versions, still not working.
@fossfreedom I tried with a new user account and it does have the same problem.
I found something new that does not work anymore: Bluetooth. I don't use it often, so I think it broke at the same time the keyboard shortcuts and themeing did.
The bluetooth tray icon works fine, but when you press on it and choose bluetooth settings, the budgie control center part just says you have to connect a bluetooth adapter (while using bluetoothctl works fine). Tested on multiple machines, you cannot connect to any device anymore, it just says connect a bluetooth adapter in budgie control center.
Workaround: install blueberry (it does basically the same as budgie control center's bluetooth settings) -> use this to connect to bluetooth devices.
I also retetested all with Budgie 10.8 -> themeing, keyboard shortcuts and bluetooth are still broken.
But since there are no other reports (and besides ur5us and me, nobody seems to have these problems?), I think its just something archlinux/solus related, maybe some gnome libs that are too new or something?
Description
I’m using Solus. After every reboot or more specifically logout + login I have to reset certain key combos and the keyboard repeat-interval & delay. Moreover, global hotkeys for GoldenDict just do not work at all. All of that started misbehaving several month ago after running
eopkg it --reinstall -c desktop.budgie
as far as I can tell.Budgie version
10.7.2
Operating System
Solus 4
