virtual box display problem

SUMMARY

I have a dual display setup with monitors of different resolution.
I have global scaling enabled and set to 175 %

when I start some applications like vlc, virtualbox, dragonplayer, kate the
content of the application is not drawn properly and the content of the window
(menus button etc) is unusable/unreactive.  Resizing the window does not
refresh the window (see ttached screenshot of virtualbox

now when I disable one screen OR set the global scaling to 100 % the paint
problems go away.

when I mess with the backend renderer the problem does not go away.

setting the scaling to 100% and using the fonts to scale is a workaround but it
does not increase the size of visual elements like scrollbars which remain
rather small.

KDE Frameworks 5.68.0
Qt 5.12.8 (built against 5.12.8)
