  • I have checked the FAQ for answers.
  • I have checked the Changelog that the issue is not already fixed.
  • I believe this issue is a bug, and not a general technical issue, question or feature requests that can be discussed on the forum.

Describe the bug
Can't select and play songs in the playlist with touch input in GNOME 45 and KDE Plasma 5.27.8 Wayland sessions.

To Reproduce
Open the Strawberry Music Player in a KDE Plasma or GNOME Wayland session on a computer with a touch screen using touch input. Select a song in a playlist using touch input. Double touch on the selected song to attempt to play it. It won't play. Also, press the play button will play the last mouse or touchpad selected song in the playlist, not the new one selected with touch input.

Expected behavior
Selecting the song with touch input should switch to that song. Double touching on the song should start playing it or pushing the play button should also play the touch selected song.

System Information:
-Hardware: Microsoft Surface Pro 8
-Strawberry Version: 1.0.20-1
-Operating System: EndeavourOS (Arch Linux)
-Kernel Version: 6.5.6-arch2-1-surface
-Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.27.8 (Wayland)/GNOME 45.0-1 (Wayland)

Additional context
Issue: I love Strawberry Music Player. It's the first full-featured music player on Linux that actually has working lyrics (and not that minimalistic "only plays songs" GTK based crap!). The major problem that I have is that touch screen support is not that good. I can't scroll up and down the playlist or the album cover/lyrics sidebar without using the scroll bar. I can highlight a song in the playlist using touch input, but I can't play the highlighted song using the play button. Double tapping on the highlighted song using touch input does nothing.

Having to use the scroll bars is the minor issue. However, not being able to select and play songs in the playlist using touch input is a major issue. Double clicking with a mouse and trackpad to play a song in the playlist works well, but double tapping with touch input does not. Is there a way to fix this?
