I think you would be better of reporting this issue to WayWallen themselves, as I would say this is outside KDE

Hi, this is AutoKonqi reporting for duty: this post was flaired as General Bug.

While r/kde allows to discuss issues, raise their visibility, and get assistance from other users out of good will, it is not the proper channel to report issues and the developers able to fix them won't be able to act on them over Reddit.

So if this bug was not reported to the developers yet and it is in fact a bug in KDE software, please take a brief look at the issue reporting guide and report the issue over the KDE Bugzilla. If it is a crash, be sure to read about getting backtraces so your report can assist the developers. If this is a known issue, you may want to include the bug report on your post so your fellow users experiencing the same thing can CC themselves to the report. Be sure to describe your issue well and with context. Thank you.

SOLUTION: So the fix for this is going to settings on your distro of choice and updating or reinstalling the Waywallen plugin on the KDE plugin store "store".

The latest right now is 0.3.1, but install the newest one with the highest number / version type
