Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.3) OS: Linux KDE Autostart is set to run 2 applications on startup (after login) - Thunderbird and Teamviewer. Thunderbird starts in desktop 1: "thunderbird" Teamviewer starts in desktop 4: "kstart --desktop 4 teamviewer" Sometimes(!), those are mixed up - Thunderbird starts in desktop 4 and Teamviewer in desktop 1 (!!?). Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: No idea how to reproduce it. Expected Results: Thunderbird on desktop 1 and, because of kstart, Teamviewer on desktop 4.
Little update: Lately (for a weeks months now) it doesn't work at all anymore, meaning my autostart programs are never started on the correct desktop. kstart --desktop 1 thunderbird Thunderbird is started on Desktop 4 in most cases (obviously because of another autostart on Desktop 4). If it makes a difference - I'm using Fedora. Since kstart doesn't do what it's supposed to do, I'm not using it anymore.
I see the same issue with using autostart with KDE Plasma 5.4.3 (openSUSE Leap 42.1). "kstart --desktop X" is ineffective - all autostart programs start on desktop 1 This bug has also been discussed in the forums: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=101023
