One possible clue, llvmpipe, suggests possibly your Mesa is broken. Provide input/output from
inxi -GSaz --vs
as a starting point to catch up on hardware and software, but do it only after first running
sudo inxi -U
Leap's inxi is ancient and broken. -U gets it current. Visual output from using -U is only useful to /dev/null unless errors are observed.
Thanks Felix for responding, much appreciated. OK this I can do easily, here is the output from inxi, and yes I did the update first -

Along with inxi, provide also:
xrdb -query | grep dpi xdpyinfo | grep -E 'dimen|ution' sudo zypper se -si Mesa | grep x86
And here is the output I got from these incantations -

I don't use emacs, so won't be contributing anything specific to its regard.
I remember reading long ago that qt5ct can conflict with elements of Plasma. Whether that's still applicable in 15.4's 5.24 I don't know, but this might be the stimulus you need to not wait for official end of life status announcement due soon for 15.4 to get your upgrade to 15.5 done, which will get you to Plasma 5.27. I do plan to upgrade our systems soon, it is in our schedule to do so... Something that can sometimes clear up random Plasma foibles is logging out of any Plasma session, then emptying all content from ~/.cache/ before logging back into Plasma. No joy, I did this by rebooting to init 3, logging in, and clearing out the ~/.cache directory. HTHs, Marc...
