plasmashell is independent of the screenlocker. This is not the cause. Please confirm your screen locker settings, whether this is X or wayland and please check if any inhibitions are active in the battery applet.

I boldly hypothesise that —-replace tries to register interfaces before the former shell has quit, resulting in missing interfaces.
Thank you for reporting this issue in KDE software. As it has been a while since it was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the issue with a recent software version? Like Plasma 5.25, or ideally 5.26? If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "CONFIRMED" when replying. Thank you! |
