Yeah it’s pretty awesome overall. I think the issues are from a few things on my end:
- I’ve upgraded through a few iterations starting with Plasma 6, so my dotfiles might be a bit wonky. I’m not using Home Manager so my dotfiles are stateful.
- Could be very particular to my dock setup as I have two docks + one of the clock widgets.
- Could be the particular wallpaper I’m using (it’s one of the dynamic ones that comes with KDE).
- It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s related to audio somehow as I have Bluetooth set-up for when I need it.
I've been having a similar flakiness with plasma on Nixos (proprietary + 3070 as well). Sadly can't say whether it did{n't} happen on another distro as I last used Arch around the v535 driver.
I found it funny how silently it would fail at times. After coming out of a game or focusing on something I'd scratch my head as to where did the docks/background went. I'd say you're lucky in that it recovered itself, generally I needed to run `plasmashell` in the alt+f2 run prompt.

I’m sure it’ll settle soon enough :)
