If you look at the syslog from the original report, you will see:

"Activated service 'org.kde.kglobalaccel' failed: Process
org.kde.kglobalaccel received signal 6"

BOTH report that

"kglobalaccel5[1751]: qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
kglobalaccel5[1751]: qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform
plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found."

proceeding the fail, so I suspect the origin of the problem as is the
same. Just that the output in logs is a bit different, as we have new
kglobalaccel, Qt and plasma now compared to the versions when the bug
was 1st reported.

Bug description:
  Intending to explore an unrelated issue with sddm/video-graphics
  (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895905) I booted the current hirsute
  daily on

  dell [optiplex] 990 (i7-2600, 16gb, nvidia geforce gt 6600 gt)

  No "Try Kubuntu" or "Install Kubuntu" dialog appeared, instead I got

  "Installation failed - KDialog \n
   The installer encountered an unrecoverable error.
   A desktop session will now be run so that you may
   investigate the problem or try installing again"
