Something similar happens to me, but when logging into KDE Plasma.
Sometimes it happens that desktop applications that start from a saved
session (Firefox, Thunderbird, Telegram, Signal...) start loading and
then everything crashes. The login screen reappears and when I log in
again, everything crashes again until I restart the machine. The machine
gets into this state randomly, about once a week.

My system is 13.3-p3 amd64.

What comes in my mind is...

  *Hardware problem
     *Main memory (including memory slot)
     *Dedicated grhaphics memories, if any
      (seems that X-related processes are crashing)
     *Power failures / instabilities

  *Software problem
     *Mis-alignments caused by ASLR or something
     *Bitten by uncommon bugs in fundamental libraries like libc,
      xcb, glib,...
     *Not sure it's MFC'ed to 13.x or not, but missingly determined
      instruction sets for SIMD libc or something alike.

I also thought about the memory modules (even though they are ECC), but a few days ago I replaced them with 4 other modules from the server and the problem persisted. Of course it could be anything else (graphic card, power supply, etc.), but it's strange that it only happens after booting when logging into KDE. When everything crashes and the login screen reappears, I try to log in again, everything crashes again (usually in the part where Signal Desktop starts, but I don't know if it's related). I can repeat this 5 or 10 times, but until I reboot, KDE doesn't fully start. When I reboot, the machine runs all day, even for several days at a time.

It also happens that the screenlocker crashes

Jul 11 17:32:16 xxx kernel: pid 6487 (kscreenlocker_greet), jid 0, uid 1001: exited on signal 11 Jul 11 17:32:16 xxx kernel: pid 6489 (kscreenlocker_greet), jid 0, uid 1001: exited on signal 11

Then I have to log in as root via Ctrl+Alt+F2 and run: ck-unlock-session Session1

Otherwise, when KDE is running, all applications work without crashing.
