And what systemd version does Kubuntu 20.04 have?

According to my testing on the upcoming openSUSE Leap 15.3 (which has Plasma 5.18 and systemd 246), the only change needed to fix the problem there is the commit referenced in bug#427777, otherwise things seem to work well.

But it seems Ubuntu 20.04 has systemd 245 (can you confirm?). From what I understand that might have had a "bug" that broke the deprecated GetSessionByPID function (seems to be fixed again in 246), so probably the fix from comment#10 (https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/commit/bb7b1226e65f533e21145b03047bfef604232323) would be needed as well (and https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/commit/f6269cadde64ac535092a74cb4fc493cc25014fe to fix it again for older versions).

Maybe you should also contact the distribution about that.
