journal entries from plasma panel crash in X11
SUMMARY
If I connect a secondary monitor and have it arranged to the left of the
primary screen, icons on the left side of the plasma panel become unresponsive
to mouse clicks. Icons on the right side of the panel seem to work fine, and
pressing the Meta key brings up the application launcher just fine. I have been
able to reproduce this both in VirtualBox and on real hardware. This bug only
happens if I am already logged into a Wayland session before connecting the
second screen. If the second screen is connected prior to logging in, then the
plasma panel functions just fine.
Here is a video demonstrating the issue in VirtualBox:

If I connect the secondary screen while logged into an X11 session, plasma
appears to crash (black screen, panel and desktop widgets eventually reload),
but once everything is back up, the panel responds as normal to mouse clicks. I
have attached the system journal entries pertaining to this event, though I
don't know how useful they are. No crash reporter was offered.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In a Wayland session, connect a secondary screen and configure it to appear
to the left of the primary screen.
2. Disconnect the screen and restart the computer.
3. Log into a Plasma Wayland session.
4. Connect the secondary screen.
OBSERVED RESULT
Icons on the left side of the panel are unresponsive to mouse clicks or hover
actions until the secondary monitor is disconnected.
EXPECTED RESULT
The icons should respond as normal.
