Thanks @Pascal for indicating that the drop down menu lists do appear by selecting XRender as the rendering engine.
Unfortunately XRender has other issues. The reason I originally changed away from using the default settings is because then I had issues with screen tearing [1] and an inability to login due to SDDM login screen hangs [2].
