Hello,
I cannot get this to happen in a Cachy OS virtual machine. Can you share more details about your installation? Have you removed any packages or done any extra customization on KDE?

Also, this is a total shot in the dark, but is it possible you have disabled the Cipboard applet in the System tray settings?

Wouldn't disabling clipboard stop the copy icon to work, too? My clipboard is not disabled.
