SUMMARY
under wayland, I use a floating panel with only the task manager (icons only) as a latte dock replacement. I have it set to be centered and auto adjust. when I login to plasma, it has the wrong size and sets my icons to the left. this didn't happened before. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. make a floating panel that will contain the pinned and opened apps, center it to create a dock.
2. login with wayland session
3. the bug happens

OBSERVED RESULT

the only fix is to open edit mode then escape. but the bug will show up next login or boot.
EXPECTED RESULT
have no issue but a dock/panel with the correct size and padding.

When you enter edit mode, do you see it still as "fit content" or does it fall back to "fill width"?

by default it was using "fit content" after upgrading from plasma 5.27.x 
I ended setting it to custom and the bug shows up at random, but less times now. will reboot to see if it persists and reply back

well, it seems like that after updating arch the bug was fixed, as I set the panel to "fit content" again and it's not happening even after a reboot under the wayland session.

I'll mark as resolved then.
