SUMMARY Hi! Thanks for the latest activity integration on Wayland! Its awesome to activities working like on x11. I use the option in Activities->Switching: "Current virtual desktop: Remember for each activity". But it doesn't seem to be working STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Be on Virtual desktop 1 on Activity A Switch to Activity B 2. Be on Virtual desktop 2 on Activity B 3. Switch back to Activity A OBSERVED RESULT Its on Virtual desktop 2 like Activity B EXPECTED RESULT Should be on Virtual desktop 1, since it was the current used on Activity A SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I can reproduce this too. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83 Qt Version: 5.15.2
I can also reproduce: Operating System: KDE neon 5.22 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.8.0-59-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 2 × AMD A6-6400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics Memory: 7.7 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD CEDAR
Yeah, there are still some missing activity features that need to be implemented on wayland.

Currently, on Plasma 5.27.4, I still get this issue on Wayland - it sometimes works and some times doesn't, in the same session. My workflow is that I have YouTube playing something on VD 4 in the activity "Personal", while I work on the activity "Work", switching between VDs 1 and 2. I then sometimes switch back and forth between the "Work" activity and "Personal" activity, when I hear something going on in the YouTube player that I would like to also see - and a lot of times - possibly 50% of the time - when I switch to "Personal" I find it in VD 1 or 2 and I have to manually go back to 4, or when I switch to "Work" I find it in VD 4 and I have to switch manually back to where I was working.
