Thanks for answer. Command apport-collect 1782880 has been executed 
successfully.
The problem seems not to be related to any kernel version. It looks like that 
it is a plasma issue only. 
The reported problem pop up after an update some time ago, also on another 
computer that  contains kubuntu 16.04.1, kubuntu 18.04 and windows 8.1. 

If I execute KDE applications on running plasma desktop, they fail at selection 
NTFS mounted partions. If I execute the same KDE applications on 
ubuntu-desktop, they do as expected. 
Means, on ubuntu-desktop, NTFS mounted partitions are displayed and can be 
selected, e.g. by digikam, while digikam running on plasma-desktop.

Test scenario:
original installed desktop: kubuntu-desktop
additional installed desktop: ubuntu-desktop

fstab:
# / was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=5ca944c9-9bd2-46f6-a7c1-bc4c7104239e /               ext4    
errors=remount-ro 0       1
# /home/a1/Data was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=02181F59181F4B55 /home/user/Data   ntfs    defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0     
  0

While the file open dialog of digikam on ubuntu-desktop knows the nTFS
mounted partition “Data”, the file open dialog of digikam on kubuntu-
desktop does not display partition “Data”. I included a picture of the
digikam file open dialog about to select the picture folder.

Additional plasma bug: the application on kubuntu-desktop do not consider the 
change of language to english. Just the KDE Application Launcher menu changed 
the language from german to english.
In opposite, applications on ubuntu-desktop consider the new language setting 
to english.
