*** Bug 494750 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I have the same issue on my system but I wanted to add to the original report and make it explicit that it *only* happens with the global menu. When I turn the global menu off, the menu in the application windows behave as expected: when I click, e.g., the "File" menu, it opens, then when I move the cursor to the right, to the "Edit" menu, and hover over it, the "File" menu closes and the "Edit" one opens.

Pushed by vladz into branch 'master'. applets/appmenu: Workaround global menu getting dismissed unexpectedly Qt has a fallback code path to dismiss all popups when the application loses keyboard focus. The issue is that QGuiApplication::focusWindow() not always has reasonable values. For example, after calling widget->hide(), the QGuiApplication will think that the widget's window still has focus for a while. This can result in popups getting unexpectedly dismissed: - hover the File entry - the corresponding File popup will be shown - hover the Edit entry - the File popup will be hidden - the Edit popup will be shown - at this point, QGuiApplication::focusWindow() still reports that the File popup window has the keyboard focus - some time later, qtwayland will report a new focused window. It is racy, Qt can report either null or the Edit popup window. - if it's null, the Edit popup will be hidden M +9 -0 applets/appmenu/lib/appmenuapplet.cpp https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/commit/b9161eeb246f2e30197af1ded659cda31cbc2172 Git commit d5a123f997a06bacafcc2e0b68c43c75ef90f9a0 by Vlad Zahorodnii.
