Gnome shell crash on physical keyboard detach

First things first

I hope it's the right place for this issue and if you need any additional info or have tests to be done, feel free to ask !

Affected version

• Arch Linux on a Surface Go
• Linux 5.6.5-arch1-1-surface
• Gnome 3.36.1 on Wayland

Bug summary

Everything is in the title =)

More seriously, after unplugging the physical keyboard, the shell got (partially?) crashed. See below for more details.

Steps to reproduce

1. Be the owner of a Surface Go (Guessing similar device should do the same... :) )
2. Detach the physical keyboard
3. Try to use the shell, open an application, ...

What happened

• If it happens when on desktop, hovering the Activities does not trigger it
• If it happens when on Activities, trying to open an application may not open it. And leaving the Activities view leads to previous situation.
• Rotating the tablet from portrait to landscape (or opposite) only leads to image corruption (see attached).
• Opened applications are still alive and react to user-input.
• Re-attaching the keyboard does not fix the problem.
• The only responding shell features are the calendar popup and the logout menu (see attached). And fortunately, logging out and back again solves the bug.

What did you expect to happen

I expected it to not crash.

Relevant logs, screenshots, screencasts etc.

Corrupted display after rotating to portrait

logout menu still alive

calendar popup also alive
