Looks like there are a couple of similar reports which look like the same
problem to me. I'll mark them as duplicate. Reopen if you disagree.

Additional information: when I switch the primary monitor, the panels do
switch, that messes up the task manager. Windows from the left screen are shown
in the task manager from the right screen vice versa.
Manually moving the panels from on screen to the other works, but again, all
that is gone when I reboot.

I have the same issue in Plasma 5.8.0.

My primary monitor is the right-most monitor. When I log in, the panel from my
left-hand (non-primary) monitor is on the right-hand monitor and vice versa.
The widgets from the left monitor are also on the right while the left monitor
itself has no widgets at all and the default Plasma wallpaper.

When I go to the screen system settings and change the primary monitor to be
the left one and then back to the right one, the panels switch position, but
the left monitor still has the wrong wallpaper and no widgets.

I always have to correct all this after every reboot because when I log out and
log back in, my monitor desktop setup is messed up again.

This is super annoying. I thought multi-monitor issues were solved, but this is
completely broken here.

One interesting side node: I have two of these "Desktop" handles which open the
plasma desktop context menu as if I had two plasma desktops on top of each
other. One of them is clickable and movable, the other isn't (see screenshot).
