Description Peter Eszlari 2023-02-03 16:38:52 UTC 
SUMMARY
When I log in to the X11 session, the daemon "xsettingsd" is not running.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. log in to the X11 session 
2. open konsole
3. $ systemctl --user status

OBSERVED RESULT
             ├─plasma-kded.service
             │ ├─1481 /usr/bin/kded5

EXPECTED RESULT
             ├─plasma-kded.service
             │ ├─1481 /usr/bin/kded5
             │ └─1521 /usr/bin/xsettingsd

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Distribution: Kubuntu 23.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When I log in to the Wayland session, xsettingsd is running. The same is true, when I log in to the X11 session inside a VM (virt-manager/qemu).
Comment 1 Peter Eszlari 2023-02-19 15:29:06 UTC 
I tested this again on openSUSE Tumbleweed with Plasma 5.27.0 and there it works. So this was either fixed in 5.27 or a distribution specific problem.
