Description Steve Vialle 2024-09-29 07:34:50 UTC

Notifications are set to appear in the usual place (above the system tray), but after some uptime and a few screen lock/blank cycles they begin appearing in the center of the screen instead. This appears to be new with plasma 6.

Sorry I can't provide repro steps. This has happened 3 times this week, always after returning from screen lock / monitor sleep (but not every time). Restarting plasma (logout/login) returns notifications to the correct location.

Additional: After this occurs, changing the popup position via system settings also has no effect. All notification popups are in the center of the screen.
