-- Information about the crash:
plasma shell constantly crashed when interacted with and somtimes even when the volume change osds show up. i've updated my system and no updated fixed it. i deleted .config/plasma* (i cannot loose my kwin config bedcause i have hundreds of shortcuts and rules) and restarted plasmashell and it still crashed. it did not crash when logged in with a new test user. this behaviour also happenes with krunner

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately the backtrace is incomplete and missing debug symbols for the following lines that we need to figure out exactly what's going wrong:

9  0x00007f88852376cc in ??? () at /usr/lib/libwayland-client.so.0
#11 0x00007f88836d0721 in ??? () at /usr/lib/libQt6WaylandClient.so.6
#12 0x00007f88826f223b in ??? () at /usr/lib/libQt6Core.so.6

Could you please install debug symbols and attach a new symbolicated backtrace generated by using `coredumpctl gdb` in a terminal window? See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Retrieving_a_backtrace_using_coredumpctl for details about how to do this. Thanks again!
