I noticed that the issue is present also on Kubuntu 20.04, so it has
been there for a while. It's not present on Ubuntu MATE, though, which
indicates that it's a KDE issue rather than an ibus one.
But @Cory, it would be good if you could clarify why it is a problem. In
short: Why do you want to have ibus-daemon running without seeing which
input source is currently in use? Understanding that would be useful to
determine the importance of the issue.

Title:
IBus Panel Show Icon on system tray doesn't persist
Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in plasma-desktop package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After a reboot in Kubuntu 21.04 (and 20.10) the IBus Panel icon
appears in the system tray despite "Show icon on system tray" NOT
being checked. Right clicking on the IBus Panel icon, checking "Show
icon on system tray" and then unchecking again it causes the icon to
be correctly hidden. But the problem reappears after the next reboot.
Another user reporting what is almost certainly the same behavior:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/j91t8f/ibus_panel_icon_in_system_tray/
And this is an _identical_ bug report from 2012, so maybe it's a regression
of some sort?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=877135
Based om the trouble shooting requested at that time I get:
$ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/ibus/panel/show_icon_on_systray
No value set for `/desktop/ibus/panel/show_icon_on_systray'
Note that I am running KDE, in case that's the important detail.
The primary problem is that if you click on it accidentally and close
the panel, you lose all keyboard input.
