Hi, using plasma 5.24.1 and wayland, after screenlocking (triggered by timeout and monitor-off) and logging in again by giving the password on the screen-lock screen, only parts of the desktop appear properly. In my case, i had chromium open (using X), krusader, a terminal shell and systemsettings. The effect was a blinking screenlocker-picture on the xwayland/chromium window showing the browser content and the screenlocker-picture alternatively, this gave a very annoying blinking effect. workaround: switch to another desktop, switch back and the blink effect is gone. Still annoying, though
Hello, I tried to reproduce this issue. I worked fine for me. Restoring the whole Wayland desktop once I unlock it. I have Firefox , systemsetttings and Chromium opened. Operating System: Kubuntu 21.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.13.0-28-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 630
well, it happened for me twice.... That's the reason for the bugticket (maybe for testing you should also get sth. to eat and let the computer idle/poweroff the monitor :-D) Yes, maybe its dependent on other factors as well.

Hello, I followed your steps and worked as expected. I'm not sure what could it be. Lets see if other users reports same issue. Regards

I noticed it within the last ~1 week (maybe after a recent update)? To test, I switched to X11 compositor (instead of wayland), and the screen unlock did NOT have a problem. So it seems (to me) the issue is with wayland, while X11 worked fine. To reproduce: 1) lock screen (meta-L) 2) unlock screen -wayland didn't show my desktop (only mouse cursor). A workaround is to press CTRL+ESC, and then it opens task manager and the desktop properly. -X11 was able to unlock fine. I'm not a developer, and I'd say I'm beginner to medium experience (not advanced, not a developer). Using T490 on Linux Manjaro, kernel 5.15.21-1-MANJARO x86_64
I've been experiencing this issue as well on EndeavourOS with AMD 5500XT graphics. It's been happening over multiple kernel and plasma releases. Like the other comments, it only occurs in Wayland. In my experience, Plasma still accepts global hotkeys in this state. For instance, using Alt + Tab briefly displays the windows. However, when letting go of those keys, the windows become "invisible" again. Open windows still accept keyboard input, even if the window is not being displayed properly.
