SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Install `plasma-bigscreen-git` from AUR (yes i use arch btw) or git clone and build manually. 2. Run it as a window (script from repo) or as a session 3. See a dark/light screen with an error icon in the sidebar. OBSERVED RESULT Light screen with an error icon in the sidebar. EXPECTED RESULT Plasma bigscreen launching properly SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0 Qt Version: 6.9.1 Kernel Version:
