The issue after logging in after boot

Sometimes when I boot into plasma, the pagers are blank despite Text display set to show "Desktop name", note that the panel is vertical and not sure if this is relevant somehow but I always boot into plasma via 'startplasma-wayland' command in TTY.

The problem is "fixed" by either clicking on the pager or setting the option again in Text Display.

The caught bug

Here's an encounter of the bug, apologies for the mouse not being visible but you can understand what I said happens here, this happens very rarely at start of a plasma session and you have to click at the pager block to restore the labels/via pager settings.
