Is it working again? There was a problem with signond crashing since Qt 5.15.0, but that should be fixed in openSUSE meanwhile, see http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1172904 (that bug report was about kio-gdrive not working, but it would also affect the "Online Accounts" setting in the way you describe). In any case, this is not a bug of "systemsettings", changing component.
yes, it is now working, but I would argue that systemsetting not being able to determine that signond had crashed and and respond by displaying a notice, is a bug.
Please report this issue to signond developers. They could add a crash dialog handler like most KDE projects use.

FYI: systemsettings is just a shell to show various settings modules. That's why I said it's not a bug in systemsettings (it isn't, and there's no point to argue about it), and reassigned it to KAccounts (which is the component that includes this particular settings module).
