Swaylock blocked and cannot interact with about swaylock HOT 6 CLOSED

Same for me when using swaylock-effects with Hyprland.

This is not swaylock-effects.

I have good reason to believe that these are all Hyprland focus bugs, especially as the linked issue says it also happens with Hyprlock. Refocus logic can be a bit tricky to get right at times, so I'm not too surprised - just not swaylock's fault so closing.

Can be reopened if discovered on sway or if the issues on the Hyprland tracker is fixed and swaylock still doesn't work afterwards.

I have the same issue

from swaylock.

Similar to #124 and #217 the common link for them was Swayidle.
Also plenty of similar issues on the Hyprland repo: hyprwm/Hyprland#3581

I'm also having the same problem on NixOS, hyprland, and swayidle. I'm going to research more on my side and share anything that could be helpful.

Edit 1: I'm adding the following to NixOS config to see if that works because of jirutka#54 (comment)

Edit 2: That didn't work, it fixed a different problem now baked into the Nix package where swaylock wouldn't recognize a valid password.

Edit 3: I'm switching over to hypridle and hyprlock. But from #124 (comment) they say using the git version of swaylock fixes the issue.

Same for me when using swaylock-effects with Hyprland on NixOS. There's an emergency recovery method for resetting swaylock that seems to work for me, see my comment here: hyprwm/Hyprland#3581 (comment)
