Description Eric Mesa 2021-07-20 23:13:36 UTC
SUMMARY
I have 4 monitors hooked up to my Linux computer running KDE Plasma 5 on Fedora 34. 2 monitors are DP and 2 are HDMI. When I turn monitors off and then back on, the widgets show up randomly on different screens. Also, some of the monitors lose their background. It either becomes black or the default KDE background for 5.22.3 - looks like a geometric mountain and lake.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have multiple monitors connected
2. set up your plasmoids and desktop backgrounds per screen
3. Turn off the screens
4. Turn the screens back on

OBSERVED RESULT
Widgets have moved to a random monitor and backgrounds are all messed up

EXPECTED RESULT
For things to remain where I put them
