When working with multiple displays under X11, yakuake shows up on the screen where the mouse cursor is, as opposed to a pre-configured screen

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to the Yakuake menu (hamburger)
2. In the screen dropdown, select a screen option other than "At mouse location" (e.g. "Screen 2")
3. Now it should work fine, however next time an X11 session is started, these settings will not be retained (i.e. it uses the mouse cursor position instead of the pre-defined config)

OBSERVED RESULT
On X11 session start, yakuake needs to be reconfigred in order to achieve the desired screen configuration (Screen 2) as opposed to the default (At mouse location)

EXPECTED RESULT
The screen configuration is retained across sessions

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0
Kernel Version: 6.3.9-arch1-1 (64-bit)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The expected result happens (i.e. config gets retained across sessions) under Wayland, but not under X11
