Screenshot showing issue

SUMMARY

When the OSK is open, if one clicks on a widget on the bottom panel, such as clock, network, kickoff, etc… the widget window will be pushed to the top of the screen, rather than sticking to the bottom panel as expected.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Open konsole or similar, and focus to ensure on screen keyboard is open.
2.  Click on clock in bottom panel.

OBSERVED RESULT

Widget window is opened at top of screen.

EXPECTED RESULT

Widget window is aligned to bottom panel.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: neon unstable
KDE Plasma Version: neon unstable
KDE Frameworks Version: neon unstable
Qt Version: neon unstable

Screenshot is from Plasma 5.23 on Steam Deck, but I have also reproduced on neon unstable in a VM.

Right now I think this is expected, or else the widget popup would cover the virtual keyboard when it opens. Is that what you would expect to happen?

As shown in the screenshot, the keyboard immediately gets hidden, but the window remains at the top of the screen, rather than moving back to align to the panel.
