Created attachment 187293 [details]
Picture shows Icons new position after logging in (device name in sys monitor widget is blacked out for privacy reasons)

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Install Plasma 6.5.3
2. Create Desktop Icons and Widgets
3. Reboot 
4. Log into Plasma

OBSERVED RESULT
All Icons moved from their position on my main screen to the upper left of my second screen. They also change order every time. I got a system monitor widget at the position the icons move to so they overlap. When I move the icons to their old positions they stay there until I log in next time.

EXPECTED RESULT
The Icons should be at the position I left them at.
