I'm using SDDM to launch a Plasma Wayland session on Fedora 40. I'm using the NVIDIA proprietary driver (550.67), if it matters.
Many times it works fine, but sometimes starting the KDE session takes longer than expected (after login, around 30 seconds). When this happens, after 2 minutes or so, SDDM restarts, switches to tty1, but does not log me out. I can switch to tty2 and get back to the logged in session just fine. This isn't a dealbreaker, though it is annoying.
I've also noticed that when the issue occurs, shutting down (from the Plasma menu) just logs me out of tty2, I then need to shutdown from the new SDDM instance on tty1.
Here's the output of journalctl -u sddm when the issue occurs (SDDM exits with Auth: sddm-helper exited with 2):

If you know any log files that could be useful, I'd be happy to share them.

Also got the same problem after enabling custom sound scheme in Plasma with system-ready or system-shutdown sounds (I saw these names in naming spec, that's why I gave them a try, but they didn't work). After switching back to default sound scheme, I got rid of this issue
Interesting, I did notice that with Plasma 6 it began to play a sound during login. I'm also running some Pipewire modules you don't see on every setup (namely pulse tunnels, zeroconf discover) which may delay audio activation for a while.
