    <thetext>SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***

On login, the background image from the current theme is missing, presenting a black screen instead. And I can&apos;t right click the background to bring up the context menu. This happens if I&apos;m using an external monitor with my laptop monitor disabled. If I set the monitors to mirror each other, I start with a black screen, but the right click works, and after right clicking, I see the background image.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the default theme that comes with Manjaro Pahvo
2. Use an external monitor with a laptop, with the laptop screen disabled
3. Login
4. Right click on background

OBSERVED RESULT

Nothing happens upon right click of the desktop background, and the background doesn&apos;t show any images from the selected theme.

EXPECTED RESULT

A right click would bring up a context menu.
