FYI: Not that familiar with all this... entirely possible this is user error or me interpreting it wrong. SUMMARY Socket is opened every time monitor turns on and never closes. I had ~180 sockets owned by kded5 at one point, preventing other applications from working properly. They start at 5 sockets on boot, and increases by 6 every time I restart my monitors. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Power off monitor 2. Power on monitor 3. Check sockets using command: sudo ss -x src "*/tmp/.X11-unix/*" | grep -Eo "[0-9]+\s*$" | while read port; do sudo ss -p -x | grep -w $port | grep -v X11-unix ; done | grep -Eo '".+"' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn OBSERVED RESULT Number of open sockets to X increase by 6. EXPECTED RESULT I don't know. It shouldn't just be strictly increasing though, since at some point I will run out.
