            Bug ID: 468172
           Summary: Dolphin fails to update the view surface on wayland.
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 22.12.3
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal

Dolphin when trying to go into another directory after the bug happens.

On wayland, when trying to open a file of an unknown type, the view graphics
become stuck, necessitating restarting dolphin.

***
NOTE: The problem is possibly a qt5 and qt6 bug, since the bug also happens
with duckstation and pcsx2 when using wayland (after starting a game the
gamelist view surface becomes stuck). happens with both older qt5 and recent
qt6 builds of both emulators.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. try to open a file of an unknown type in Dolphin.
one way of obtaining such file: `cat /dev/random |head -c 1MB > ran.dom`
2. Once the "Choose Application -- Portal" window appears, Dolphin becomes
unusable.

OBSERVED RESULT
Opening a folder or scrolling up or down or highlighting a file/folder doesn't
update the visual on screen.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should resume working as it did prior to trying to reproduce the bug.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Debian 12 (bookworm)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
