I have connected an HDMI monitor to my laptop and the menu and panel appears on the HDMI monitor, but when I remove the HDMI cable, the menu and panel does not appear on the laptop screen.

I have to use run command and alt tab as a fallback. But I miss notifications, especially the power status and network status.

This should be handled by kscreen, so I'm reassigning the issue. I can't reproduce the issue here (with an Intel HD Graphics 3000), I'm not sure if this is somehow fixed in 5.7.4 or it was caused by something external (hardware or dependency). Is the issue still reproducible using kscreen 5.7.4?
What shows the xrandr output before and after unplugging the hdmi cable?

Searching in the upstream bugs I found this one:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366067

That might be related, sadly, while it claims that's fixed for 5.8, it doesn't point to the corresponding commits, so we can only wait for 5.8.

Happy hacking,
