 Qt doesn't process the XRandr event (seach for "XRR" in 
qapplication_x11.cpp), but the problem seems to be specific to Plasma, e.g. 
in KWrite all is fine. My guess is that something eats the X event before it 
reaches the place in Qt where it's handled. Check if you have any X11 event 
filters in Plasma, otherwise I can try to track it down tomorrow.
