[Bug 1711348] [NEW] Long Delay when starting a slideshow in digikam using xmonad

[Kevin]

Public bug reported:

If I use digikam (qt5 app, Version 5.5.0) under xmonad I have the
problem that starting a slideshow has a delay of 30 seconds. In i3 and
kde it opens without delay.

The problem is independent of which option for "screen placement" I
choose in digikam settings. It is also independent if I use nvidia or
nouveau drivers.

Same problem also if I start digikam "kdeini5 digikam"

Maybe there is already a workaround with specific xmonad settings.
