My guess is that it's related to this:
https://bugzilla.novell.com:443/show_bug.cgi?id=438993

maybe :^), but more to follow

It's indeed extremely annoying.

Try if changing the document folder path in systemsettings -> About me helps

Didn't appear to. Made the change and no effect, restarted
plasma-desktop and also no change. Didn't reboot.... as suggested
maybe necessary in the bug reports.

There is a *large* problem here for neophytes with the offer to move
all the files...

Note that starting dolphin from the 'run_command' box or a command line
in xterm starts in the $HOME directory unless a specific parameter is
provided. AND konsole start in $HOME *with* a size 8 font on my 1920 x
1200 display and 68 year old tri-focal aided optical sensors. I do
have a loupe handy :^).

Another change magically appeared this morning that I cannot relate to
any recent update/upgrade/install, xterm has returned to it's ancient
color background, light yellow, w/green (??) text from white w/black
text. I did *not* make this change purposefully.

Finally discovered how to enable hotkey actions. Just entering them in
the menu editor does nothing but record the assignment. You must open
khotkeys and then click on various lines/boxes until the greyed out
menu options become black and editing becomes available. Then the
assignments may be activated/edited. Did I say that the "Help"
function was also greyed out?

*Amazing* things are happening.
