Since yesterday I have plasma-5.5.3/frameworks-5.18.0 running on my Kubuntu
15.10 wokplace-system via backports-ppa. The session-problems still exist, so I
tried your suggestion regarding .config in the following way: Logged out,
renamed .config to .config_save in a konsole-session and logged in again. The
result was, that I was not able to get my two screens running in kde anymore.
Luckily I had saved my old .config and could switch back. Then I tried it with
a new user. Here the two screens worked, but the session problem still exist.

Maybe my environment is kind of strange: Two screens, folder-view on one
screen, desktop-view on the other, four virtual desktops with different
sessions running in each of them. But all this worked on in kde4 with no
problems !

Since the forced change to kde5 in kubuntu (I promise to stick to LTS-release
next time), my daily workaround is this: starting a new konsole window (and the
tabs i need) if missing, if the positions of the desktop icons are messed up,
copying  ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc.save to
~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc, then logging off and back
in. If the konsole window appears, the tabs exist (this seems to be fixed), if
not, I have to start a new konsole window again. Sometimes I also have to
spread the the sessions back to the virtual desktops where they belong. It is
frustrating !
