So, a simple, fully reproducible TEST procedure, is

(1) change root password -> "xxx!xxx"
(2) login as any non-root user
(3) open Personal Settings -> 
          Shortcuts & Gestures ->
           Custom Shortcuts
(4) @ "Configure Input Actions settings", select "SystemWide", then

 New ->
  Global Shortcut ->
   Send Keyboard Input

(5) define/enter
  Trigger -> Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T
  Action  -> x:x:x:Shift+1:x:x:x

(6) Click "Apply"

(7) Open editor, type "Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T".

  Note output == 'xxx!xxx'

(8) Launch "Yast Administrator Settings" via GUI.

(9) @ Password dialog, type "xxx!xxx"
  Click to accept
  NOTE authentication SUCCEEDS.

(10) close Administrator Settings app
(11) Launch "Yast Administrator Settings" via GUI.

(12) @ Password dialog, type "Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T"

  Note output == '*****'

and, @ Click to accept, authentication FAILS.


What should/used_to happen?


(12) @ Password dialog, type "Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T"

  Note output == '*******'

and, @ Click to accept, authentication SUCCEEDS.
