Confirmed. I am not sure whether this is expected new upstream behavior. I 
find it quite cumbersome.

I use Icons and Text Window Manager and it works just fine, can't really 
tell a difference at the moment. I am not sure, but it may be that I just 
did away with the old control panel and created a new one, customizing it 
again. But I think at least on one machine I did not do that.

Works here. Is that also with a new user account?

Does creating a new standard control panel lead to a working K menu?

One idea would be to "killall plasmashell ; plasmashell" in a terminal 
window and look for output whether some QML or icons are missing.

Or just look in user.log? I think that is were Systemd + Rsyslog put 
standard output from desktop sessions? Or with journalctl in the right 
Systemd unit which might be some user slice or so.

Best,
