Dropdown hotkey doesn't work as expected. It works when I have vsCode open in the front, or when i have the dropdown open and I need to close the dropdown terminal, but on the desktop or when some other applications like mozilla firefox is in the front, it would not be working. I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
It used to work fine just before the new years. I don't know if its an update that was released recently that messed it up.

$ guake --support
Guake Version: 3.10 Vte Version: 0.68.0 Vte Runtime Version: 0.68.0 -------------------------------------------------- GTK+ Version: 3.24.33 GDK Backend:There hasn't been an update in a while, and for me the exact same setup works pretty well.
Could it be that the hotkey you are using is reserved for Firefox or Ubuntu?
@welhoilija I thought about that and changed the hotkey. Still its behaving in the same way.
I implemented a workaround for now where I went to the linux settings and added a shortcut to there to show/hide guake.
could you share what command you added to linux shortcuts for guake to show/hide?
guake toggleworked! thanks for the idea @DarthSett, this "solves" it.
