Hello everybody,

it is hard to give the root cause for this bug.

It appears quite frequently, e.g. after rebooting.
So I suspect it has to do with KDE/plasma startup.
The Device (USB Stick) notification mechanism could be involved as well.

Note: My Kubuntu system was upgraded - not freshly installed.

Let me know if I can do anything to further analyze the problem - it's
quite annoying.

Thanks

Christian
