Sample SVG wallpaper (the dark version of the Chimera Linux wallpaper, licensed
under the CC BY-SA-4.0)

SUMMARY
Since we updated KDE Plasma from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4 for Chimera Linux, SVG
wallpapers have been broken for some reason. Selecting an SVG wallpaper then
pressing apply will save the selection successfully, but the previous wallpaper
will remain displayed on the desktop. This has not been an issue before as far
as we're aware.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download the attached SVG file
2. Open system settings
3. Open the "Wallpaper" tab
4. Set the wallpaper type to "Image"
5. Press on "Add...", select the SVG file, then press "Open"
6. Select the SVG wallpaper that was just added, then press "Apply"

OBSERVED RESULT
The previous desktop wallpaper remains on the desktop. If I log out and in, KDE
Plasma stays a lot longer than usual on the loading screen (around 30 seconds
versus the usual 2-3 seconds), and when it does fire up the desktop, the
background is simply black.

EXPECTED RESULT
The wallpaper changes to the selected SVG file without issue.
