Can you please paste the contents of /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Can you please paste the contents of /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf?

Thanks for looking into my issue :) There isn't anything else than kde_settings.conf Thanks. So the config file says you're using the Breeze theme with the default color scheme--not a dark color scheme. And your screenshot actually shows that. The fact that the dots in your screenshot are white when un-selected instead of dark is very strange. As far as SDDM is concerned, it's doing everything right. I suspect a cache bug. If you delete ~/.cache/plasma* and restart, does the issue go away? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #5) > Thanks.

But the issue persists. OK, thanks. Do you see this issue in any other text fields in Plasma, such as the one in Kickoff or KRunner or the Clipboard or Networks System Tray applets?

Hi, there is no issue with another applets That's quite strange. I'm at a loss. I am having this exact same problem on Kubuntu 21.10 (KDE Plasma 5.22.5, KDE Frameworks 5.86.0, Qt 5.15.2). It started after I synchronized my Breeze Dark theme to SDDM. Changing SDDM themes did not solve it. Changing the global theme back do Breeze light and syncing again to SDDM did. I looks like SDDM is using the font color from the synchronized theme, but it is not changing the password field background. *** Bug 449117 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Removing /var/lib/sddm/.cache fixed the issue for me. Maybe we should run this after changing theme in kcm_sddm? Yeah, maybe we should. *** Bug 450521 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** (In reply to kim+kdebug from comment #12) > Removing /var/lib/sddm/.cache fixed the issue for me.

Clear cache when syncing The syncing process simply writes files to the SDDM user's homedir; it doesn't do any of the fancy notifying that can happen when you change settings in a running session. As a result, old cached stuff can be kept around and leak into the user's settings. Let's always clear the cache at the beginning of a sync to make sure that we return to a fresh clean state.
