[Bug]: Clicks triggered when NumberPad is active, on KDE Plasma with Wayland

[sleddev]

Describe the bug

When the NumberPad is turned on, and enabled_touchpad_pointer is set to 3, the touchpad still registers normal clicks at the same time when I press on the numbers.

Expected behavior

The touchpad's tap-to-click feature is disabled while the NumberPad is active (how it works on Gnome and/or X11)

Relevant log output

No response

• Distro [e.g. Arch Linux]: Fedora 40 (KDE Plasma spin)

I have made a fork where I implemented tap-to-click toggling on wayland KDE with qdbus, but I'm not sure how to make it so it still works on gnome and x11

But it does work, so it could be useful: here's my fork

@sleddev Your approach with qdbus could be helpful to other not supported feature for KDE, detecting whether is touchpad enabled or disabled and than disabling NumberPad aswell:

• Disabling the Touchpad (e.g. Fn+special key) disables by default the NumberPad as well (this functionality presently supports only xinput from xorg and gnome via gsettings - can be disabled)

Feel free to look at that. I do not use KDE, personally so I can not test it but I would definitely merge it.

I've implemented that feature and opened a pull request :)

I'm still seeing this behaviour with the latest code pulled from master.

Edit: running Kubuntu 24.10 with plasma 6.1

Yeah it happened to me too a few days ago, but right now I don't really have the time to look into it. I'll try to do so soon tho
