My system did do a kernel and Nvidia driver update this week... one been holding back on those, so maybe it was that? I don't recall seeing anything Wayland or plasma related, but there several hundred updates.

See if Dying Light works for you in wayland please ? (If you have it)
I gave wayland another go last week but Dying light and a few others wouldn't play ball unless in X11

I don't have Dying Light unfortunately. But I tested Cyberpunk 2077 and a few other games and they worked fine.
Ion Fury and Umineko were OK.

Changed your mind again then !

Well, it still does happen. The easiest way to check it is to turn the monitor off. It messes up the session. So I'm waiting for 5.24 before switching proper.
I'm OK with inconveniences, but not with a bug that hangs the whole desktop :)

I recently purchased two new monitors (dual setup, matching pair) and when they are told to go to sleep by KDE they will do one of three things, which one happens is random:
1) Suspend, then immediately back on - displaying whatever was on the screen (fail to sleep)
2) Suspend, but then cannot wake.. need to login via ssh to get a response from the computer and reboot, executing dpms commands to wake them doesn't work.
3) Leaves backlight on, showing only a black screen. Can't further wake monitors, requires SSH to reboot system as above.
I've worked around it for now though by modifying the monitors power settings to allow switching on/off without notifying the computer (so xorg still thinks the monitor is connected and powered) and disabling sleep timeout in KDE. So I just switch them off manually before walking away from the computer.
(I tried with both power settings, same issue occurs for both)
