            Bug ID: 403188
           Summary: At login, previous session restores before some other
                    services
           Product: ksmserver
           Version: 5.14.5
          Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based)
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: sammel49 at protonmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

If KDE is set up to restore previous session on login, then when login happens,
the previous session is being restored before all other services are ready.

For example, when also using Plasma Global Application Menu
(http://fasterland.net/activate-global-menu-kde-plasma-5-9.html), applications
from the previous session are started before the menu service is ready. At
least, Kai Uwe, developer behind recent updates of Global Application Menu,
made this guess -
https://blog.broulik.de/2018/03/gtk-global-menu/#comment-10163.

And there is actually a report on this already -
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=384392.

However, as other people mention
(https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/aes1vn/delay_kde_desktop_session_restore/eds444h/)
it also happens with things other than menu. So the issue might be on the side
of ksmserver.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable restoring previous session on login
2. Add Application Menu to Window decorations
3. Open Dolphin, see the Application Menu element in its titlebar
4. Relogin

OBSERVED RESULT
Restored Dolphin (and other restored applications) does not have the
Application Menu

EXPECTED RESULT
All restored applications should have Application Menus in their titlebars,
just like when they are started manually.
