This is a fresh arch install (about 3 days old). Im running plasma x11. I have 3 external monitors connected to the laptop. Randomly when doing some miscellaneous task (such as viewing the Desktop Grid to switch application windows) the connected displays will freeze. The main (integrated screen) is unaffected. As far as I can tell all else continues to work as usual.
The frozen screens are still recognized in both nvidia-settings and in the kde system setting, and I can navigate to them with the cursor (however the cursor does not appear on the screen). It is as if I am still able to interact with whatever window/app is open on these screens but they are no longer updating their display. On the frozen screens, I can even still activate the "screen edge" action to peek at my desktop for example. A reboot fixes everything but the issue will shortly resurface.

This stands out to me in the journal, however I am having trouble finding out how to diagnose it:

Let me know what else i can post to further clarify the issue.
Thank you in advance.

Just realized that once I disconnect the input cables to these external displays and then reconnect the integrated display becomes affected. Here the main display will freeze except for the cursor.
