Bug ID: 448250
Summary: Desktop session not restored completely after Login
Product: kwin
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: compositing

Odd behaviour
SUMMARY
Sometimes after having logged in successfully, the Desktop is not
restored/initialized successfully.
The Plasma session is still functional, startup apps are loaded as expected and
other applications still seem to work fine.
The login screen is not affected.
To resolve the behaviour, I have to shutdown my computer and start it again. A
simple reboot has no effect (the observed behaviour remains the same)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I have not yet found any chance to reporduce this behaviour intentionally. It
just happens every once in a while. Today, it happened after having restarted
my laptop after an Kernel Update via Discover app.
OBSERVED RESULT
* Instead of my wallpaper image, I have a black screen
* my notification banners appear in the center of the screen instead of on the
upper right
* no context menu (right klick) on the desktop available
* no files on my desktop are visible (simply empty)
Neither logging out and in again nor a reboot solves the issue (it remains the
same everytime I log in). Only a complete shutdown and restarting solves the
issue.
System log and kernel log do not show any errors/warnings.
EXPECTED RESULT
* Wallpaper displayed
* notifications at the top right
* context menu on the desktop available
* display files on my desktop
