Plasma loses desktop effects after waking from sleep
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Since the last update whenever I wake Plasma from sleep I lose all animations, transparency, etc. after waking from sleep. To fix I have to log in and out again.
Using Dell Lattitude 7920 with i7 processor and Intel UHD Graphics 620.

I can provide any further information if needed. I couldn't find this bug elsewhere.

Event Timeline

I can confirm the issue, desktop compositing is being disabled.

As a workaround, press ALT+Shift+F12 to re-enable it.

@Girtablulu this sounds like an upstream bug?

@livingsilver94 Is this still an issue after the latest plasma update?

Confirmed the bug still exists with the latest plasma update on unstable

Can confirm this happens on my system too.

can you guys delete .config/kwinrc and see if this fixes the issue?

Nuking stuff from my system? I'm in.

Seems to work for me so far anyway. Will report back if anything changes, thanks!

Hasn't been happening to me anymore since a long time.

so gonna close it then, as comment above a general fix is deleting kwinrc, what the exact cause is for this issue I Dont know
