           Summary: Plasma 5 doesn't save some settings
           Product: plasmashell

          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux

Plasma 5 doesn't save settings on Manjaro, Plasma 5.13.4 qt 5.11.1
Framework 5.48.0
4.14.65-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 18 13:29:56 UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Not all, because some settings are respected and some are not. 

For example I can align icons on Desktop to the right or to the left and it
works ok. Settings that I set in system setting seems to be respected. It looks
like only those changed from applets are not and from Dolphin options are not,
but not all. 

When I set Dolphin Preferences > General > Confirmations and thick the
Executing scripts I can run .desktop file (run application) from different
Dolphin locations but option in Dolphin remains unmarked.

I unmarked kmix volume feedback, I don't want this feedback to pop-up when I
for example watch something. Yet, it still appears but only when I use keyboard
shortcut to change volume. When I use slider in kmix the icon doesn't show.

Plasma also can’t remember kmenu settings. For example I change name of entry
in kmenu edit, Web browser Firefox to Firefox and save it, still in kmenu is
visible Web browser Firefox.

I created new user with home folder and checked default permissions.
I only had one file with different permissions:

-rwxr-xr-x plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc

and I corrected it and restarted system but with no effect.

I found some workarounds for my problems.

Name of Firefox has changed in kmenu when I changed it in firefox.desktop file
in 
/home/user/.local/share/applications/

Right mouse click on file, properties and edit.

For sound volume change I unmarked / unchecked option in system Settings →
Workspace behaviour 
Display visual feedback for status changes. But this looks like some general
setting for whole Plasma.

Volume feedback in kmix should respect its state without any other settings.
