Description Jelle Haandrikman 2020-08-25 19:14:44 UTC 
SUMMARY
It's not possible to start a new session of switch user via the Application launcher. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log in to KDE plasma
2. Select launcher -> Leave
3. Normally click on switch user or new session

OBSERVED RESULT
No menu items for 'switch user' or 'new session' available. 

If I try to switch via the 'user switcher' widget, then the other sessions are listed but nothing happens. I can start a new session via the user switching widget. 
It is possible to switch sessions via loginctl + loginctl activate <Session ID> 

However the list of unused sessions grows with each switch in the user switch applet. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Menu items for switch user and new session available in the application launcher. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian testing / KDE 5.17.5
