I can reproduce this by simply plugging in my external monitor to my laptop after Plasma is started.

This can be fixed by simply opening "Display Configuration" from my system tray and then switching to or between different modes ("Extend to left" or "Extend to right"). Or it can also be fixed by re-arranging any screen in System Settings.

Here's a video of it:

This issue exists on X11 too, for me.
