ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This same bug was reported as bug#481595 16 months ago. After being ignored for more than 1 year it was recently closed as FIXED. However, no patch was posted to check with the user if such "fix" was working, not a reference to a commit with the "fix" was posted. After the bug was closed, plasma 6.3.5 and then plasma 6.4.0 were released, both of which still show the bug.
Please provide a patch/commit for the user to test before closing the bug.
