I would say your system has problems as root, "zypper ve" the result should be: Dependencies of all installed packages are satisfied.
Thanks again Patrick, here is what resulted, I think it is OK....
nova:/etc/systemd/system #zypper ve Loading repository data... Warning: Repository 'openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3' appears to be outdated. Consider usin a different mirror or server. Reading installed packages... Dependencies of all installed packages are satisfied.
appears to be ok

note that the plasmashell instance is initiated by "marc", not root to start a new instance, kstart5 and/or plasmashell must be ran by "marc" not root.
you can kill is manually by: kill 23370 then start it: kstart5 plasmashell
or if that fails: plasmashell but I do not know the ramifications of starting plasmashell that way.
And this is the output, also the kicker bar at the bottom of the screen was removed and did not come back.
