SUMMARY This desktop machine has two physical displays, and multiple activities configured. Each activity has a unique wallpaper, that is assigned to both screens. Each time the user logs in, 1 screen each of several randomly-selected activities switches back to the default wallpaper. Resetting the wallpaper assignments lasts only until the next login, when a new randomly-selected set of activities again lose their wallpaper configuration. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create x activities where x > 2 2. Switch to activity x1 3. Set image 1 as the wallpaper for 2+ screens 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for activities x2...xN, using a different image for each. 5. Log out 6. Log in. OBSERVED RESULT Observe that a random selection of activities will no longer display the previously-configured image as the wallpaper on one screen -- instead they will have reverted to the default wallpaper. I have never witnessed both screens' wallpapers being lost, it is always just one. EXPECTED RESULT Wallpaper configuration should be saved, and persist between user sessions. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 22.04.2 LTS -- updated immediately before logging this bug KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel: 5.19.0-35-generic ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In this instance, both displays are running at 4K resolution ( 3840x2160 ) -- I have not tested this behavior in other configurations.
Thank you for the bug report! However Plasma 5.24.7 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE; supported versions are 5.27, and 5.27 or newer. Please upgrade to a supported version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one. If you need support for Plasma 5.24.7, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases that are no longer supported by KDE. If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to a supported version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
