[SOLVED] Kodi & Plasma 5

As I said in another topic, today I've installed Plasma 5.2 (migrating from KDE 4). Kodi seems to hang the system when it starts. Specifically, it doesn't start and then the whole UI is frozen. I played with the compositing options of KWin (enabled/disable compositing, chose OpenGL 3.1 over 2.0) but none of them worked. I've also deleted the configuration files of Kodi just to be on the safe side. Has anyone else the same problem? Any suggestions?

Same Problem here
Today moved from existing KDE4 to Plasma5, Kodi hangs up Plasma.. Stopping Kodi does not help to get plasma back working.
i try to generate logfiles now and such things but acctually i have no idea whats happening here

And today it runs! Some packages were upgraded, I don't know if that was the difference.
