           Summary: Compose key does not work on Xorg anymore since Plasma

I'm not sure where to start investigating this.

I'm using Plasma Desktop on Arch Linux with Xorg. I have Caps Lock configured
as my compose key.

Since upgrading to Plasma Desktop 6, the compose key does not work in KDE
applications anymore, for example in dolphin, konsole, krunner, kwrite. The
compose key still works in chromium, firefox, gnucash, signal-desktop, element,
vscode. Interestingly, it also seems to have stopped working in lowriter, steam
and qgit.

In the apps where it doesn't work anymore, pressing the compose key will simply
have no effect. It will not enable caps lock and the following letters will
just be typed as normal.

This is the output of setxkbmap -print -query:
xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include
"pc+us+de:2+cz(qwerty):3+es:4+inet(evdev)+compose(caps)"        };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};
rules:      evdev
model:      pc105
layout:     us,de,cz,es
variant:    ,,qwerty,
options:    compose:caps
