yes, this is likely due to the plasma Konsole icon doesn't realize there's an already open Konsole.

It's not a new problem though, see bug#373440.

I'll mark it as duplicate.

The taskmanager context menu just runs "konsole --new-tab", and that's exactly what the other bug report is about.

See /usr/share/applications/org.kde.konsole.desktop:
...
[Desktop Action NewTab]
Name=Open a New Tab
Icon=tab-new
Exec=konsole --new-tab
