SUMMARY
When I first boot Alt-Space brings up the krunner search field at the top of the screen.  It will work for a short while then stop working.  Logs show the following errors when attempting to open it via the hotkeys:

krunner	qt.qpa.wayland: eglSwapBuffers failed with 0x300d, surface: 0x558a32a8e060
krunner	kf.runner: Error requesting matches; calling "org.kde.runners.baloo"  : "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported" ""

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot system and use Alt-Space to open krunner search at the top of the screen
2. After a while try it again with no result, acts like hotkeys are doing anything.

OBSERVED RESULT
No search box shown at the top when using Alt-space

EXPECTED RESULT
krunner search should open at the top of the screen each time Alt-Space is pressed

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 6.1.5 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE; supported versions are 5.27. (LTS), and 6.2 (non-LTS) or newer. Please upgrade to a supported version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

If you need support for Plasma 6.1.5, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases that are no longer supported by KDE.

If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to a supported version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
