The top right corner of my screen, wherein the little glitch occurs, with latte-dock running

SUMMARY
A small visual glitch occurs in the corner of my desktop whenever latte-dock is running; a few pixels are visually dead. The pixels aren't dead to clicks, and some apps will not receive the glitch if they are occupying that space (though some will). 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. launch latte-dock
2. look at the corner of your screen
3. frown at the dead pixel.

OBSERVED RESULT
See screenshot

EXPECTED RESULT
areas of the screen not occupied by a latte dock/panel or their animations, shadows, and effects should be visually unaffected thereby.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:  Arch 251.2, Zen 5.18.3
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My screen is HiDPI; I am running X11 at 200% scaling.

does it still occur if you change your plasma theme?

You know, it's kind of funny -- I changed the theme and it got WORSE. then I changed it back and it... disappeared?
Now I cannot reproduce the glitch myself!
