Graphical bug's representation

I have multi screen configuration in which the 1st is on top with the KDE's panel and the 2nd at the bottom without any panel. When the laptop's cover is closed (2nd screen turns off) and opened (2nd screen turns on) on the 2nd screen shows empty space with the same size and the same position of the main panel. When maximizing window on the 1st screen the window goes below panel and the bottom of the window is covered by it.
It occurs always and persist until I unlock and lock the panel.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have two screens on where the 1st with panel is on the top and the 2nd is on the bottom without any panel.
2. Close the laptop's cover (then the laptop screen is turned off).
3. Open the laptop's cover (then the laptop screen is turned on)
4. Move the maximized window from 1st screen to the 2nd.
5. Maximize window on the 1st screen.

OBSERVED RESULT
There's empty space at the 2nd screen with the same position and the same size of the 1st screen panel.
Maximized window on the 1st screen goes below panel.

EXPECTED RESULT
Moved maximized window should fill whole size of the screen.
Moved any sized window to the 2nd screen and then maximized should fill whole size of the screen.
Maximized window on the 1st screen fits in the desktop area minus the KDE's panel size.

Sounds like the strut doesn't get updated by Plasma
