Bug Description
After letting the displays timeout and go to sleep, external displays have a white layer between the windows and the mouse. It's still possible to interact with the windows below this layer, but it's not possible to see what's happening without moving them to a display that doesn't have this glitch.
This occurs in both x11 and wayland sessions, and it's new on noble (didn't see it on mantic, including with the backports ppa).

Hmm this may not be a kwin bug - I tried logging out and back in, and on SDDM the displays worked fine, but logging back into plasma I had the problem again. I've installed sway and will try logging into it the next time this occurs. I'll report back whether sway presents the same issues when logging back in.
