Keyboard shortcuts never trigger on Linux under X11

[rscarson]

Tested in Ubuntu 22.04 under X11 and Wayland.

Shortcut gets bound successfully, but handler never triggers. According to tauri-apps/global-hotkey#28, X11 support should be available in the current version (0.9.1 is what my application is pulling, through Tauri 1.0.0-rc.13).

Bug seems identical to #307, which while still open, was labelled fixed by #313 and #333.

So what is the status of the issue described in #307?

Code below works on Windows platforms, but not in Ubuntu 22.04, neither X11 or Wayland

fn handle_shortcut() {
    // Never triggered
    println!("in");
}

pub fn bind_shortcut(app_handle: tauri::AppHandle, shortcut: &str, handler: fn(AppHandle)) -> Option<String> {
	let mut gsm = app_handle.global_shortcut_manager();
	gsm.unregister_all().ok()?;
	match gsm.register(shortcut, || { handle_shortcut(); }) {
		Ok(_) => {
                    println!("Registered shortcut: {}", shortcut);
                    None
                },
		Err(e) => {
			// Error
                        println!("Could not register shortcut: {}", e);
			Some("invalid shortcut".to_string())
		}
	}
}

Copy pasting my discord message:

It's open because it's not fixed. And about the relation to tauri-apps/global-hotkey#28, tauri-apps/global-hotkey#28 was opened march 1, and #307 was reopened march 10. tauri-apps/global-hotkey#28 is about the wayland limitation and #307 is open because x11 doesn't work due to a bug. Unfortunately #307 does work for many, including the main maintainers of tao, which makes it harder to fix.

Therefore closing this as a duplicate of #307. And a headsup: this may only be fixed in the context of the winit migration :/
