Just the wallpaper? Did anything else go wrong too? Like, say, your panels switching screens? Or your desktop icons appearing on a different screen?

Yes, just the wallpaper. All my widgets, panels are placing correctly.
That's why it's so annoying sometimes :D

Just noticed that behavior on 5.23.4 version of KDE Plasma.

Are you using X11 or Wayland? Though the bug should be hoepfully fixed by some rework in the primary screen. 

Please report again if you observe the same behavior on 5.24 (not released yet).
