problem description

SUMMARY
I can reproduce it (by repeatedly run the krunner) but it's so random that I don't know what is the exact method.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I showed in the attached video:

Active window is outlined in green.
Window names are: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5

At 00:21, #1 window is activated by krunner. After that I manually reactivate #5 window.
At 00:25, #2 window should have been activated by krunner, but it was only raised to the top.

This is working on Wayland, and I'm afraid there aren't resources to investigate or fix this for the X11 session, sorry! Thanks for understanding.
