KWin supportInformation

I have 3 screens: 1 laptop display + 2 external monitors. Multiscreen handling seems to be broken in two noticeable ways:
* Move to screen # is not working, either through the right click menu on the titlebar or using global shortcuts. The window remains where it was.
* Yakuake's slide-down-on-hotkey feature only works properly when the leftmost screen (1080p) is active. On the other 2 screens, Yakuake arbitrarily opens either on the active screen or on the leftmost screen across multiple invocations. Moreover, it's display area is cutoff when the 1440p screen is active.

Is it with any window? or only particular windows? do you have window rules that force windows to be placed on a specific output?

Good question. It seems to affect only maximized windows. E.g., doesn't work for a maximized dolphin or system settings window, but works after un-maximizing it. No window rules.

Not sure if the Yakuake bug is related or a different one.
