Bug Description

Three monitor setup. Each monitor is a different size and resolution. Their placement is correct in Display Settings.

On login or after a crash, the screens redraw with the desktop offset by the width of the first monitor. Monitor #1 (smallest) gets 1/2 of #3, monitor #2 (largest) gets #1 and 1/2 of #2, monitor #3 (mid-size) gets 1/2 of #2 and #3.

However, mouse-clicks still register where they're supposed to, as if the screen is drawn correctly.

A screenshot shows the monitors drawn correctly. The attached image shows the center monitor, #2: the app launcher bar should be on the left edge, but instead there's the contents of monitor #1, then monitor #2.

Blanking the monitors or logging out/back in usually corrects the problem.

Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.6
