Bug ID: 458000
Summary: Multiple desktop settings get reverted if switching
between X11 and Wayland
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.25.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment

Target Milestone: 1.0
Created attachment 151376
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=151376&action=edit
SystemD log since last boot
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Logout of X11 session
2. Log into Wayland session
3. Reboot
4. Login to Wayland or X11 Session
5: Multiple settings are gone
OBSERVED RESULT
Actually I have issues to decide where to report this issue as it affects
multiple areas of the KDE desktop.
Anyhow what I observed:
When switching between X11 and Wayland Plasma session and then do a full reboot
it is very likely that multiple desktop settings get reverted.
This included:
- All wallpapers on all activities on all screens
- Reset to be a black color
- Pinned apps on the taskbar (not mini programs) reset to only Firefox and
Dolphin
- The Layout of all activities of all screens reset to Folder view
- Both session Wayland and X11
All this wouldn't be big of a deal if I do not have 10 activities, with
different wallpapers each, all as Layout workspace and different pinned apps in
the taskbar each as well.
Anyhow I am glad I was at least able to reproduce this issue now as I had no
idea what htis could be related to for quite some time now :D
EXPECTED RESULT
Well, the above not to happen.
Even though you need to redo the settings on a Wayland session it would be
great if it suddenly would not forget them for both X11 and Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am sorry that I don't know what to look at in journalctl so I added the
entire log as an attachment.
There are however multiple occurrences of some
Aug 17 18:04:58 Z004 plasmashell[2179]: kf.plasma.core: requesting config for
"Arbeitsfläche" without a containment!
and some
Aug 17 18:04:58 Z004 plasmashell[2179]:
file:///usr/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/views/Panel.qml:179:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'containmentDisplayHints' of null
Aug 17 18:04:58 Z004 plasmashell[2179]:
file:///usr/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/views/Panel.qml:271:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'location' of null
Which to me seems to be somehow related?
I attached the entire output of "journalctl -b" as a normal user whcih
experienced the issue to get a smaller log file.
The same output as root produces a log 3 times as long and I suppose it does
not contain any additional valuable information.
