Failing session unlocking

Help
1

Very recently I have had session unlocking failings with a black screen message to

$ loginctl unlock-session 2

And it successfully unlocks the session. It happens randomly.
I’m not sure but I think it started happening after upgrading to

qt6-qtwayland.x86_64                       6.9.1-2.fc42

Notice it is the second 6.9.1 package. I know packaging is a Fedora thing.

Operating System: Fedora Linux 42
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0
Qt Version: 6.9.1
Kernel Version: 6.15.4-200.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 8-Core Processor
Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31,2 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
Product Name: B550M DS3H

Any ideas on how to investigate?

I just came here to KDiscuss to research this issue, as I have encountered this also since updating to Plasma 6.4.1. I also am running Fedora 42 Linux. I am going to research and see if a bug has been filed in the KDE bug tracker and file one if it is not. At least we are able recover and the system does not crash or anything.
