Hi guys! Seems my KDE connect will stop being able to connect with my phone after my computer goes to sleep. After it wakes, it dectects no devices anymore. It seems to work again after a reboot. Any idea why might this happen?
I think this has started happening since KDE connect was decoupled from the Settings panel into its own app.
KDE Neon, based off of Ubuntu 24.04, kernel 7.0.0-28-generic.
Thanks!
I think I just had the same issue, but not with sleep, I logged out and back in
I don’t know why it does this, but I have similar troubles. I use
kdeconnect-cli --refreshinstead of rebooting though.
great another one to add to my alias pile, thank you
EDIT : this does not fix my issues
I don’t think that is a good place for it. Doesn’t alias stuff in the bashrc only run at terminal start? The KDE connect issue is during suspend. I’ve heard of it going in cron, and I know there is a thread out there about doing it on wake.

There are a few threads like this. I won’t link them all.
I put it as something in .bash_aliases as
alias something='this command'Ah. My magic command is ctrl+r “kd” and it pops up from last time.
Thanks, I’m going to try this.
I managed to fix the same problem by installing avahi and nss-mdns.
sudo apt install -y avahi-daemon avahi-utils libnss-mdns
Should do the trick on Ubuntu.
Had similar issues, disconnecting wifi and reconnecting it on the computer usually fixes it.
It’s been happening on the latest macOS as well. I just quit and relaunch the app to fix it; but yeah, it’s annoying.
