Yes, I did. It didn't work for me:

cenbe at shoggoth:~/.kde/Autostart > ls -l
total 4
-rwxrwxr-x 1 cenbe cenbe 75 Apr 24 07:15 session.sh
cenbe at shoggoth:~/.kde/Autostart > cat session.sh
#!/bin/bash
kstart --desktop 1 konsole
sleep 10
kstart --desktop 8 firefox
cenbe at shoggoth:~/.kde/Autostart >

although the script does work if I run it from the command line. I don't
know if that location is supposed to magically pick up scripts and run
them, but I also tried setting it up from System Settings / Autostart
("Add Script" button), which I couldn't get to work either. I moved the
script to ~ and let System Settings create a symlink in
~/.config/autostart, but it doesn't appear to run. Also, after exiting
and restarting System Settings, the script is no longer listed there.

In any case, I don't want to have to diddle about with scripts and
experiment with sleep times; I want the existing feature in the menu to
work. Otherwise what is it there for? It makes Plasma look amateurish.
