SUMMARY

This is an annoying one. Kickoff (or KRunner) starts the application I have clicked before. It seems to ignore the current request and repeats the last one.

The bug seems to be introduced with Plasma 5.22.1 (Framework .83).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log in.
2. Run one application in Kickoff - in example Dolphin.
3. Nothing happens.
4. Click on "System Settings".
5. Dolphin appears.
6. Click on something else.
7. "System Settings" appears.


OBSERVED RESULT

It also seems to have side effects. If I want media files from dolphin to open in vlc, it is just the same. The first time nothing happens. The second time the file is opened in vlc. If I want another file, I have to open vlc twice. Because the first time it opens with the previous file.

It does not affect keyboard shortcuts like META+E to start Dolphin. These still work correct. As far as I see. Konsole is fine, too.


EXPECTED RESULT

Well, open the apps I wanted to :)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I tested it with a fresh user profile, too. The same result. Interestingly I can only reproduce it in a Wayland session.
