Research direction
Start by reviewing the NVIDIA open kernel driver version 580.82.07, Debian 13 kernel 6.12.41, and the attached nvidia-bug-report.log.gz in the KDE Plasma 6.3.6 Wayland multi-monitor setup. Reproduce by connecting a second HDMI monitor to the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU and compare the frozen widgets and panels with other monitor configurations; done means the session remains usable.
