I can reproduce this bug in any KDE 5 (Plasma 5.2.x and 5.3.x) release so far, using SDDM 0.11.0.
Platform: Slackware-current.

we're making the right calls to SDDM from the Plasma side, lets track this on the SDDM server on the report above

I imagine it's a lack of a suitable backend being installed (or existing on the SDDM side)
