The same is clearly visible when receiving a KDE Connect + Whatsapp
notification for a message containing some fancy emoji.

The plasma notification will say something like "Dude wrote: <gibberish glyph>"
instead of showing the actual emoji.

The Emoji Selector copy to clipboard feature is however a much easier way to
reproduce.
