Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Chrome or Firefox.
2. Open System Settings (with the browser still visible)
3. Close System Settings.
4. The menus for System Settings remain in the global menu bar.

I tried with kate (KDE_NO_GLOBAL_MENU=1) and some Java application and it works fine for me. (Firefox and Chrome support global menu here)

Matthew, are you on X or wayland?
Comment 3 Matthew Trescott 2017-09-12 20:05:26 UTC 
I am on X. Global menus don't work at all on Wayland, nor really, for me, does Plasma. Too many crashes. But Arch doesn't provide debug symbols so I can't help with that. :(

I am able to reproduce using the KDE_NO_GLOBAL_MENU=1 env variable, with kate. I'll attach a screen recording; hopefully that will help.

This should be fixed with the port to libtaskmanager. Please reopen if it's not.
