SUMMARY

If there's a problem with the bluetooth service, the system startup waits for it to timeout before showing the taskbar (or making any interaction possible).
Only the wallpaper and the mouse cursor are shown.

I suspect it's kdeconnect that is halting the startup, waiting for bluetooth to become available, since it's logged right after the bluetooth timeout.

Disabling the bluetooth service fixed the problem, but it should not delay startup even if the service times out. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have the bluetooth service timeout


OBSERVED RESULT
system startup is delayed

EXPECTED RESULT
startup should not depend on bluetooth status.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

It's not kdeconnect - I've removed it from /etc/xdg/autostart, and re-enabled the bluetooth service, and startup is still delayed until it times out.
