[SOLVED] KDE desktop shortcuts moved after last update

I have two monitors:

Right (main) - nvidia
Left (second) - intel hd

After last update, all KDE desktop shortcuts constantly move to second screen after reboot.
-----------------
I think this may happens because when the computer boots, the first display is the integrated Intel HD?

I have the same problem and still searching if the bug is upstream and not with Arch' packaging.

It is certainly not a bug with Arch packaging.

Does anybody know which package include icon's positioning?

Re: [SOLVED] KDE desktop shortcuts moved after last update

"icon positioning"?
I suspect what's going is something about the output (monitor) configuration.
Is this on X11 or wayland? Does it happen w/ the other? What's the output of

qdbus6 org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation
kscreen-doctor

And if this is on X11, please post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General
If not an fwwi, there're several reports about framebuffer/modeline delays between sddm on X11 (default) and kwin_wayland w/ nvidia

@intersectRaven, also nvidia or even hybrid system?

I'm on an AMD laptop. 680M w/ 6800S using Wayland. I'm thinking it's something with the multi-monitor enhancements they did with the latest KDE version.
