Screenshot of the empty settings window that shouldn't be opened for such apps

SUMMARY
Notifications have a configure button in their title bar which brings you to the settings page for them. However, for apps that can't be configured, clicking that will still open up a "Configure Notifications" window that is empty and that can't be interacted with. In the applications notifications settings these apps show the message "This application does not support configuring notifications on a per-event basis.".


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Trigger a notification for an app that can't be configured through plasma, e.g. Spotify
2. Click the "configure" button

OBSERVED RESULT
A window for configuring the notifications opens, but can't be used (see attachment), along with the notifications system settings module.

EXPECTED RESULT
Only the notifications system settings module opens, since it's the only one that is useful in that case

SOFTWARE
OS: KDE neon 5.26
KDE Plasma: 5.26.5
KDE Frameworks: 5.102.0

I think the bug is solved. At least from plasma 5.27.9. For applications which do not support settings via KDE, now there is short description describing it: https://i.imgur.com/QqBQBUP.png

Hm, perhaps it's only happening with some applications? It's still occurring with the Spotify flatpak that I have on Plasma 25.7.9. Do you have a chance to test that?
