The plasmoid with the error.

SUMMARY
Click the Media Control icon shows an error message instead of the plasmoid (Image attached).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I haven't done anything special really, when I saw that the media player icon appeared I simply left clicked on it.

OBSERVED RESULT
An error message:
Error loading QML file: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.mediacontroller/contents/ui/main.qml:162:34: Type ExpandedRepresentation unavailable
file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.mediacontroller/contents/ui/ExpandedRepresentation.qml:459:9: Type PlasmaComponents3.ComboBox unavailable
file:///usr/lib/qt/qml/org/kde/plasma/components.3/ComboBox.qml:191:13: Cannot assign to non-existent property "showShadow"

EXPECTED RESULT
The actual media control panel should have appeared

ButtonShadow.qml has the showShadow property and this file hasn't changed in 2 months. I suspect a diwnstream patch is causing this; it's all correct in the code that I can see in our git repo. Please report this to the Manjaro devs. Thanks!

Restored back to normal after restart. :(

Sounds like a local issue on your machine after upgrade then. It's generally recommended to reboot after any big update. :)
