Screenshot depicting how Application Menu submenus get hidden behind the status bar

SUMMARY
When using a wayland Session, the Application Menu (hierarchical/traditional menus) plasmoid overlaps with the status bar

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Application Menu as your menu launcher.
2. Chose a submenu, for example, "Shutdown"
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Parts of the submenu are unreadable because they are placed behind the status bar.

I shall attach a screenshot depicting the bug behavior.


EXPECTED RESULT
The submenus should be readable and not hidden behind the status bar.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Slackware64-current
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.12.14 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This shows only in Wayland. Under an X11 session the submenus adjust to the status bar and are readable.

Screenshot attached depicting the bug.
