           Summary: Plasma 5.27.2, i3 workspace obscured

kstart5 plasmashell output

I have happily used i3wm with plasma for many years. i3 replaces KWIN as window
manager. I have 10 workspaces (equivalent to plasma 'Desktop'). After updating
to 5.27.2 I am having trouble viewing one of the workspaces. It is obscured by
the default plasma background (as if I was using kwin, although kwin is not
running).  I can launch applications and verify that they are running but they
do not appear, unless I use i3 shortcut to make them fullscreen. If I run
`killall plasmashell` I am able to see them. Every other workspace *except the
one that plasmashell is restarted in* works, and I am able to see and use the
plasma bar like normal.

Hope that is clear enough.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade to 5.27.2
2. Login (or launch plasmashell)
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
plasmashell is obscuring the i3 workspace that it is launched in.

EXPECTED RESULT
Able to use i3 normally.
