I have a Kubuntu 22.04 Desktop that has just been upgraded from 20.04. This
isn't the first upgrade; the original install was quite some years ago, but
I've kept the home directories intact. I don't know; it could be 5 - 10 years
old.
After a couple of reboots, the above issue showed up and stayed. FWIW, I also
had the issue in comment 10 occur very randomly in 20.04.
My initial fix in 22.04 was to go through the .local, .config and .cache and
delete files that looked old and crufty. That fixed the staircase problem
noted above, but the icons still moved around on each reload of the desktop.
My next fix was to backup and delete plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc.
On reboot, the file was autogenerated again (I had to reconfigure the desktop
to my preference again). I seem to have icons staying in one place now. I've
done numerous reboots over a period of days and it seems stable.
I note that the new plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc and the old file
look very different. Also the date stamp on the old file was updating with
each reboot (it wasn't old and static).
