I can confirm that this bug affects Mint 18.2 Sylvia (KDE edition). Currently using Plasma 5.8.9 , KDE Frameworks 5.36.0 , Qt version 5.6.1, kernel 4.13.0-45-generic, 64 bits OS.
Seems that the bug might be purely KDE related:
bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366156
Of note, some users have detected the big while switching from nvidia -» intel, while others have ellicited it while going from intel -» nvidia. It seems that it goes both ways.
