Comment 1 ianp 2022-05-01 19:59:44 UTC
I have this identical behaviour after upgrading to Kubuntu 22.04, Plasma 5.24.4. KDE Framework 5.92.0
Hardware: Bluetooth Mouse, Lenovo Laptop 530 Yoga
Problem: Invert Scroll setting is lost after Logout or Restart. Scrolling is no longer inverted.
Workaround: Switch off the setting, click Apply, Switch ON setting again. Apply. Then it is working.
Comment 2 ianp 2022-05-12 05:47:12 UTC
Currently I need the Mouse Settings Window open permanently, so I can switch it OFF and ON again. I do this about 8 TIMES per day. Every time it sleeps.
Comment 3 Brandon Kirsch 2022-06-03 15:56:45 UTC
I have this problem as well with my Bluetooth mouse at home.  However, the same problem also happens to me at work when I remove and reconnect a USB mouse.

When I open the Mouse settings, it tells me invert scroll is enabled even though it is not.  One work around is to disable, apply, re-enable, apply again.

A second workaround is this command: xinput set-prop "Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse" "libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled" 1

Both workarounds are temporary.  I have to use one or the other every time my mouse falls asleep.

I have same problem. 

Kubuntu 22.04.1. 
Logitech 3 button bluetooth mouse.
KDE Plasma 5.24.6
KDE Frameworks 5.92.0
Qt 5.15.3
Linux Kernel 5.15.0-48
Graphics X11

Unchecking "Invert Scroll Direction", clicking Apply, Re-checking "Invert Scroll Direction" fixes it temporarily.
Its worse than it was with the older Kubuntu 20.04. Every day this happens.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2024-03-25 01:53:59 UTC
All reports seem to be from Plasma 5.24 on X11; is anyone using a newer version of Plasma and/or on Wayland able to reproduce the issue?
