When initializing cec-dm-controller the sddm-greeter check occasionally finishes too early.

With the sddm-aerial-breeze theme for example we expect two sddm-greeter windows to show up. We only check number of windows twice and call it a day afterwards. If at the time of the second check only one of two sddm-greeter windows has loaded we accept that as the final number and never manually force a focus switch.

To the user with their TV remote the behavior manifests being unable to control sddm-greeter account selection via TV remote.

Suggestion:

  • Add config option for expected amount of sddm-greeter windows, defaults to 1
  • Wait for more than two sddm-greeter checks
  • We may also want to move the sddm-greeter checks into a thread so they don't lock up the rest of the program
