KDE Plasma 6.3 -custom display ICC broken

SUMMARY

I noticed after the update to KDE Plasma 6.3 that after logging in, I had a black screen rather than my desktop. Further investigation by using an external monitor revealed that switching my display preferences from ICC to "Built In" allowed me to see the DE on my internal display, and it held after a reboot. Unfortunately, the "Built In" color is not suitable for photo editing.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot system and login
2. Observe black screen
3. plug in external monitor to switch to "built in" color in display settings

OBSERVED RESULT
Corrected black screen after login

EXPECTED RESULT
To be able to log in and see desktop using ICC color profile (which previously worked fine)
