This has nothing to do with awesomewm (but can be related to Qt).

The stack trace indeed looks like an endless loop between Qt and the KDE
Platform Theme. I suppose the latter has some problems when being used outside
the Plasma desktop.

It would be *very* interesting to know the line numbers in #26..#28.

Can you please install libkf5notifications5-dbg package (while it's available),
get a new traceback with it, and paste those three lines?

If you want a workaround, try starting Vlc with QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=generic.
