I also think this problem is very serious. Quite frustrating. I did not
suspect that I would have such problems on the LTS version where everything
should be stable. This is the third kernel update which has not fixed this
problem. I keep going back to kernel 5.13.0-35.

Operating System: Feren OS 2022.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz
