Uneven rendering on screen

SUMMARY
Rendering is not consistent across screen width leading to slanted text when
scrolling. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter tablet mode on laptop
2. Turn screen vertically  
3. Scroll up and down using touch screen

OBSERVED RESULT
The right hand side of the screen seems to render at a different time compared
to the left hand side. This makes scrolling "wobbly", where a line of text
appears to be slanted. The direction of the slant changes based on if I'm
scrolling up or scrolling down with my finger. 

A picture of this uneven rendering can be seen here in the attached picture. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Rendering is consistent across screen width when scrolling. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 37 6.2.8-1.surface.fc37.x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
OBS doesn't capture the problem, taking a video of the screen doesn't capture
it either.

I have my screen set to 60hz, however when changing it to 120hz, it becomes
noticeably better but appears to still be present. However my camera can't seem
to capture a decent picture of it compared to when configured for 60hz.

Scrolling with my finger in horizontal tablet mode doesn't have this issue as
far as I can tell.
