--- Comment #8 from Pascal <[email protected]> ---
I feel like this other issue is connected to this one:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503615 I shall post my findings in both
threads and would like to thank previous commenters on delivering vital info
and hints. Those quickly lead to this conclusion:

# Findings: (see testing setup and steps below)
- Animation speed does not matter when it comes to triggering the issue
- "Fade" effect for "Virtual desktop switching" seems to be central
- Nothing showing up in the logs (via journalctl -f) when things break down

_____________

# Base setup
Operating System: Kubuntu 25.10
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.9.2

Wayland - Nvidia proprietary driver in use (580.95.05) on RTX4080 - single
screen

- Two active (virtual) desktops, both with windows spanning the whole vertical
screen space (in order to force the taskbar into hiding, if set to autohide or
"dodge windows)
- Default window effects and animations
- Using "Overview" effect via Meta-W
- Behaviour: Switching between desktops, using browser (Firefox), file manager
(Dolphin) and the like
- running "journalctl -f" in terminal to check for events

Note: Altered settings take place on the System Settings: "Animations" page
only

# Baseline config
- all animations at default (re: actual effects and speed)
Results: No problems

## Increased animation speed (two notches below max.)
Results: No problems

## Back to default speeds and settings, except for the "Virtual desktop
switching" effect, going from (default) "slide" to "fade"
Results: Almost instant breaking of second desktop (first desktop remains
intact, including its window effects)
Symptoms:
- Only one of the two desktops is affect, the other remains intact
On the affected desktop:
- "Blur" effect not working any more
- the auto-hide feature of the taskbar breaking, leading to the taskbar to
never appear via mouse movements, only via keyboard commads
- pressing Meta+W doesn't work any more

Remedy:
- Alter "Virtual desktop switching" effect in System Settings to anything other
than the current setting

# Sanity check (trying to revert the issue and then cause it again)
All settings to default
Results: Working again, both desktops

# Same as above, only changed from "slide" to "fade" for the "Virtual desktop
switching" effect
Results: Second desktop breaks again, with the symptoms mentioned before
