Plasma screen locking/setting shortcut keys question

Been running into this off and on, so I'm not sure what I can do about 
it, short of starting to nuke packages.


Plasma locks the screen if I'm away from my computer for more than a few 
minutes or there's no input, which I don't mind at all. However...


It's causing a few issues with Orca. Namely,at times, it won't let focus 
on things, and if I type my password in, all I get is a layered pane in 
response once it unlocks. I did see issues about waking up from 
hibernate but that doesn't apply to my specific situation as far as Orca 
goes.

So can I do anything to sort this? I did have the same on Mate ages ago 
as far as unlocking but I forgot what sorted it out. I'm assuming it's 
something that will get sorted out in due time with KDE


Second question.


How do I, in the kglobalshortcuts config file, set up a shortcut to 
restart Orca? I'm looking at the file and not understanding just how it 
is supposed to be set up at all. I'm doing it this way due to KDE's 
panels not working with Orca right now, so is there anywhere I can check 
or the syntax on it?Orcacu
