Description tromzy 2017-03-17 14:41:43 UTC 
Every time I try the Plasma Wayland session and switch back to X11 (even after restarting the computer), plasmashell launches without any Plasma element. I can launch krunner and right click on the desktop, but I have no panel nor widget on the desktop. The funny thing is that if I add an element through the "Add widgets" menu, the widgets are listed as present on my desktop (there is a "1" near the Note plasmoid for example, meaning there already is one on the desktop, except it is not there).

Can you please attach your ~/.config/plasmashellrc and ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ?

Thanks

Sorry for late reply. I attached the two files. I should add an IMPORTANT information : the bug seems to occur when I use dual monitors only ; if I use only one, the plasma elements are there in X11.

The bug has stopped happening for some time (Plasma 5.13 beta). i'll reopen if it happens again.
