We fixed this in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/2795 a while ago; I'm a bit surprised it wasn't included in the 6.3.0 release but I guess there must have been a timing issue and the cherry pick came too late. In any case, the fix is in the 6.3 branch ()https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/blob/Plasma/6.3/applets/taskmanager/package/contents/ui/Task.qml?ref_type=heads#L79 and should definitely be in 6.3.1, out tomorrow, so please reopen if it still happens then.
