Hello all, everything was working fine with a stock openSUSE Leap 15.0 installation. Since I went to Leap 15.1 'zypper dup' I experience issues with the KDE panel. There's one panel configured (among other things with an application launcher (the gecko icon), a task manager (i.e. a list of open windows), and a systray). After a certain time, some functions of the panel cease to work - for no apparent reason. Most notably autohide and the task manager (i.e. I can't jump to another window by just clicking on it). The application launcher or controlling a music player via its systray icon continue to work. My current workaround is: killall plasmashell ; sleep 3; plasmashell & but that leaves me with another annoying issue with Network Manager. After restarting plasmashell I cannot activate network connections that require a password. Normally a PW dialog for unlocking kwallet appears, but not after a restart. With journalctl I find this: --- snip --- Aug 28 12:37:21 box NetworkManager[28889]: <info> [1566988641.8457] device (wlan1): state change: prepare -> config (reason 'none', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Aug 28 12:37:21 box NetworkManager[28889]: <info> [1566988641.8467] device (wlan1): Activation: (wifi) access point 'WLANSSID' has security, but secrets are required.

Is this possibly another instance of https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1108570 ? So I guess, I'm looking for help in either preventing the panel from acting up or how to restart the panel such that NetworkManager can ask for a password. Any hints are greatly appreciated!
