Bug ID: 480562
Summary: Switching to a tty and back Sometimes Results in One
or Both of my Monitors Giving a Black Screen
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.92.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

SUMMARY
Alright, so full disclosure. I'm using a dual monitor setup with nvidia and
trying out the plasma 6 wayland session on endeavourOS (a.k.a Arch). If I
switch to a tty and then back to plasma. Sometimes, one or both of my monitors
will turn black. I can usually get things working again by running kwin_wayland
--replace, but on wayland that takes all my apps with it. However, sometimes
when both screens are black, nothing works and I just reboot.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Switch to a tty (for me that is done with ctrl + alt + function keys)
2. Wait a few seconds.
3. Switch back to plasma.
OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes, one or both of my monitors is now a black screen. It doesn't happen
every time. Give it a few tries.
EXPECTED RESULT
Switching back should bring back to where I was without any graphical errors.
