After running solaar show in the command line, the F-keys of my keyboard (G915 TKL) stop working.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Just run
solaar showon the command line - F Keys do not respond anymore
- The only workaround is to turn the keyboard off and on again
Additional context
I run this command regularly (each 10 minutes) to generate a report for a monitoring tool. I just want the battery info. At the moment I'm parsing the output of solaar show. I would also appreciate if someone offers a better alternative as apart from the present issue, the command takes a couple of seconds to generate the output.
