Description

As you can see in this video, when I focus on another window the note disappears. This even happens when Always On Top is set.

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior on Arch Linux with KDE Plasma, using the linked video as the reference case, and inspect the desktop window-focus handling. Confirm whether the note remains visible when focus changes, including with Always On Top enabled; done means the note no longer disappears in those cases.
