            Bug ID: 451897
           Summary: Password bar in lock screen becomes invisible
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: david.cortes.rivera at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
After updating to plasma 5.24, the screen lock program (from Ctrl + Alt + L)
oftentimes will not show the password bar even after having pressed some key.
When this happens, it is possible to position the mouse there and click it as
it will change the cursor towards a blinking line (for writing) and it will
take what's written there, but one has to know where it is as it is not
visually distinguishable from the background.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Wait a long time until the screen auto locks (doesn't happen when locking it
manually, and the bug is not always reproducible, but happens quite often).
2. Press some key.
3. Watch for the password bar.

OBSERVED RESULT
The password bar is invisible, and if I do manage to find it with the mouse and
write, doesn't show any asterisks.

EXPECTED RESULT
The password bar should always be visible.
