KDE startup on Activity "Desktop Icons" is blank with a scroll bar

Hi, this problem is not critical but is rather annoying. Essentially upon startup with KDE, my desktop will either startup as normal with desktop icons or startup with a blank desktop and a side scroll bar on the right side of the screen. The only fix is to go into "Activities" and switch between "Desktop" back to "Desktop Icons", the same problem is posted here: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.p … at-startup , with no solution. If anyone knows of a previous post that fixes said problem, I would be very thankful if you could post that link. None the less, any help given will be much appreciated and thank you in advance.

//EDIT: I suppose I should also add that this has occured in the past on other Arch Linux installs after some time. Also if anyone has this as a common problem I would like to know if there are other less tedious work arounds if this is a bug.

Here is my system info, available via "screenfetch" if needed:
