SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***

When I start an application from the Application menu or Simple menu alternatives the application window opens but the entire bottom menu bar crashes and restores, or becomes unresponsive - no clicking on the bar possible until the launched application is turned off. I can switch between apps using alt+tab.

I am using Wayland

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start an application menu and select any app that has an option to launch from right click (Firefox or Konsole for example)
2. Start the application from that option
3. Notice the responsiveness or the status of the bottom bar

OBSERVED RESULT

The main bottom menu bar becomes unresponsive or it restarts

EXPECTED RESULT

The application should run normal as if started from the left click option

Thank you for the bug report!

Please note that Plasma 5.26.5 will not be supported for much longer by KDE; supported versions are 5.27, and 5.27 or newer.

Please upgrade to the latest version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.
