bug: keyboard input ignored

[fenugrec]

Expected Behavior

Normal operation

Current Behavior

This happened twice today, unknown cause, where keyboard becomes mostly non-responsive (cannot alt-tab, cannot type into open windows, none of the shortcuts handled by lxqt work) except for ctrl+alt+F2 which let me switch to a text console and troubleshoot this issue.

Possible Solution

From another console, 'kill -SIGQUIT" on the lxqt-globalkeysd PID, causes it to be respawned and normal operation restored. [EDIT - on a third occurence, it was 'lxqt-panel' that needed to be killed - will try to confirm this next time]

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. use system normally
2. sorry, that's all I have...

Context

started occuring after recent system update , however no lxqt or openbox packages were updated (only kernel and other seemingly unrelated pkgs)
