Re: Window decorations/qt theme resets to some default after a while of being logged in

I ran into something similar but it sounds a little different from your issue.

https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36184

But for me, it was consistent - apps using Qt5 ran with a different style from my Qt4 apps.  If this is what you are experiencing, double-check that you don't have a ~/.kde4 directory and all your kde settings are in ~/.kde. Qt5 apps don't look in the right place for style settings if you have a .kde4 directory with nothing much in it (bug should be fixed soon).

Also, I cleaned out some old .gtk-qt-rc files that seemed to be causing problems with some of my apps.

Hi all, I'm still having this issue. Some amount of time after logging
in, particular new apps start using default windows decorations and
themes when they spawn new windows. Google example is VLC starts using
the default gtk thick scroll bars, or krunner starts showing a blue glow
around the text field which isn't part of whatever plasma theme I've got
going on.

Anyone else run into this?
