--- Comment #1 from Matt Gwie <[email protected]> ---
I also regularly experience this issue. Sometimes, after playing a game (which
I usually run in windowed borderless), persisting after closing the game, all
virtual desktops besides the one I used for games (Desktop 1) experience
strangeness, including the the panel (set to dodge windows) refusing to show
itself when moving my mouse to its location on the bottom of my screen. More
information in Additional Information.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I am also using Wayland. My global animation speed is normally a bit higher
than the default (also while writing this report I changed the global animation
speed which seemed to fix every desktop, at least temporarily. I will attempt
to more reliably break/unbreak the issue if possible.)

Adams mentioned screen edge actions are unaffected, but that does not seem to
be the case for me. My top-left corner action is "Present Windows - All
Desktops", but moving my mouse into the corner only has an effect on Desktop 1,
and works correctly, presenting windows from all desktops. However, when moving
my mouse into the corner on an affected desktop (e.g. Desktop 6), nothing
happens.

This is similar for other Window Management settings that involve desktop
effects, including Toggle Grid View, Toggle Overview, Toggle Tiles Editor, or
Toggle Cube, as examples from a quick test. They work fine on Desktop 1, but
not on Desktop 6 when the issue has occurred.

Some other desktop effects don't seem to happen on affected desktops either,
such as the "window minimize" animation, the "window open/close" animation, or
the "Slide Back" effect if enabled. (Interestingly, if "Fall Apart" is enabled,
when a window is closed, it will disappear immediately, and then the animation
will play when switching back to an unaffected virtual desktop.)

Additionally, I can "move" which desktop is unaffected by the issue:
1. After triggering the issue, identify an unaffected virtual desktop, and an
affected virtual desktop.
2. Switch to the unaffected virtual desktop (e.g. Desktop 1).
3. Ensure "Overview" is enabled in Desktop Effects.
4. Activate "Toggle Overview" (I believe the default hotkey is Meta+W. "Toggle
Grid View" should also work as an alternative).
5. Select an affected virtual desktop (e.g. Desktop 6).
6. The previously-affected virtual desktop now has normal effects and panels
again, while the previously-unaffected virtual desktop is now affected. Repeat
the process to move them back, if desired.

Based on these observations I would be more inclined to believe the issue lies
with kwin somewhere, and the panel problems are a side effect.
