How To Bypass An Inability To Log In Via Plasma Login's GUI

Help

I’m unable to access my desktop, because its PLM installation failed to authenticate with a correct password, and isn’t allowing me to enter another (after failing to render the wallpaper, so something more fundamental is incorrect):

How can I bypass this, so that I don’t need to exit my current session? loginctl unlock-session doesn’t remediate it.

I am having this issue aswell, did you ever find a permanent solution? systemctl restart plasmalogin works, but it requires already logging in and doesnt prevent this happening after rebooting

@mikemango, I’ve not yet. Are you willing to file a ticket at KDE Bugzilla?

new update seems to have fixed it

@mikemango, for me, reproduction is inconsistent (or was; it also hasn’t occurred to me for a few weeks), so I’m not yet confident.
