SUMMARY

I have set global theme to breeze twilight and colours to breeze classic.

When you open plasma applets, e.g. kickoff or any tray pop-up (bluetooth, networks, etc) background is dark translucent.
If you open some window in fullscreen mode, doesn't matter which app it is, those applets start using light translucent background.

I find this switch annoying and I believe it only started to appear after around 5.25 release. Or maybe it was frameworks release, I can't say for sure.

The fact that they change appearance when there's a maximized or fullscreen window is intentional, but the appearance they change to for you is not. :) That's a weird bug.

Does it help if you clear your Plasma SVG cache and restart plasmashell? You can do this with:

rm ~/.cache/*plasma*
plasmashell --restart

Yes, it does.

But command should be "rm -r ~/.cache/*plasma* && plasmashell --replace"

Right, soryr about that.

Anyway, that makes this Bug 448750.
