How are you starting X in the first place? Are you using a
display manager? Are you running startx?
In the former case, this is perfectly normal for many display
managers, including SDDM. GDM, if I'm not mistaken, can and does
run X as a regular user if possible. Upstream has been talking
about adding this functionality to SDDM for a while, but so far
it still hasn't been merged.
Ah, that explains it them. I'm indeed using SDDM (due to its native
support in Plasma.)
