SUMMARY
Previous items in the clipboard pop-up are not pastable when selected multiple times under certain conditions. See below for a reliable way to reproduce (which takes me half an hour to find out).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Kate
2. Clear your clipboard history
3. Input "abc", select it, and press Ctrl+C to copy
4. Press Ctrl+V to paste "abc"
5. Input "def", select it, and press Ctrl+C to copy
6. Press Meta+V to open the clipboard pop-up, but do nothing and press Esc to quit
7. Press Ctrl+V to paste "def"
8. Press Meta+V to open the clipboard pop-up, and select the "abc" entry
9. Press Ctrl+V to paste "abc"
10. Press Meta+V to open the clipboard pop-up, and select the "abc" entry again
11. Press Ctrl+V

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing is pasted

EXPECTED RESULT
The "abc" entry should be pasted

Thank you for all the time you took to narrow down the reproduction steps. I'm able to reproduce this in Plasma 6.3.4
The good news is that I'm not able to reproduce this with git-master. It looks like recent work with the clipboard has fixed this particular bug, and should be reaching your system when it updates to 6.3.5. 

Please reopen this report if you can reproduce the same bug with 6.3.5. Thanks!
