Disable display of media controls on lock screen (showMediaControls) on KDE Plasma 5.12.7
The KDE lock screen has media player controls that look like this:
I would like to turn this feature off,
as described in D3684 (Media Controls on lock screen) and KDE Bug 384264.
I am running KUbuntu 18.04 with KDE Plasma 5.12.7,
and my lock screen config file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kcfg xmlns="http://www.kde.org/standards/kcfg/1.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.kde.org/standards/kcfg/1.0
http://www.kde.org/standards/kcfg/1.0/kcfg.xsd" >
<kcfgfile name=""/>
<group name="General">
<entry name="showMediaControls" type="Bool">
<label>If true, shows any currently playing media along with controls to pause it.</label>
<default>true</default>
</entry>
</group>
</kcfg>
/usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.kde.breeze.desktop/contents/lockscreen/config.xml
Accordingly, I have tried to change the showMediaControls
setting,
but the setting is not available in the screenlocker
menu:
$ kcmshell5 screenlocker
Changing the theme from KUbuntu to Breeze or Breeze Dark had no effect.
I also tried changing the configuration from the command line. Since the name
attribute of the kcfgfile
element is empty, I would expect the config file to be lockscreenrc
, so I used this command:
kwriteconfig5 --file lockscreenrc --group 'General' --key 'showMediaControls' --type 'bool' 'false'
However, this had no effect. Even after writing this setting to all these files:
- breezerc
- kcmshell5rc
- kdeglobals
- lockscreenrc
- plasmarc
the player controls are still visible on the lock screen. How can I actually remove the controls from the lock screen?
