KDE Plasma on multiple HiDPI monitors

I have laptop connected to external monitor. Both displays are set to 4K resolution ()3840x2160).
I have issues with pixelated fonts and icons in some parts of Plasma interface once I set scaling factor to 1.5 (2 makes everything huge). Font DPI is automatically set to 144 when I set scaling factor to 1.5.

The pixelated icons and fonts are visible in the following screenshot (text beneath the "Look And Feel" title, the "Get New Looks..." button etc):

>>moderator edit: Removed large image. Please read Code of conduct: Pasting pictures and code and screenshot posting rules. Thanks. --fsckd<<

This is also visible on other parts of the interface, especially on the icons of log-out screen.
Any idea if this is a bug or it can be solved somehow?

Re: KDE Plasma on multiple HiDPI monitors

I've noticed that this issue only occurs if I choose a floating point scaling factor (1.5 for example). I don't have this issue with 2 for scaling factor, but as said in the first post this factor makes everything too big.
