I cannot reproduce this; If you can still reproduce it in Plasma 6 RC1, can you try to narrow down the circumstances under which it happens?

Will do, but I haven't gotten any KDE updates in a couple days now, should RC1 updates have come through?
Comment 4 Niccolò Venerandi 2024-01-12 09:33:08 UTC 
(This seem to also happen when you add a new panel, and I was able to reproduce this when logging in to an empty panel)
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2024-01-18 00:46:07 UTC 
Could be a variant of Bug 477585, maybe?

Depends on what you mean by variant. It's surely the same graphical element, but the two bugs will require different bugfixes

Neon Unstable skipped right past Plasma 6 RC1 to Plasma 6.0.80, but this bug does not seem to be effecting me anymore.
