After latest update, Display configuration only supports 60hz refresh rate, spotify, discord now unresponsive

Support Graphics & Display
1

Hi, after the latest update (multiple packages), maybe 2 hours later, I noticed that kde had freezed.
I restarted to just be sure. To my surprise, the display (DP) wasn’t showing 144hz anymore.

I tried to change the settings to 144hz again, but the option for it wasn’t there.
Then I tried to unplug my hdmi & DP displays, restart a few times. Nothing worked. Instead,
my HDMI display started flickering in dark blue/green shades, and after a few more times trying lower and higher hz than 60hz, both displays went dark - no signal.

I went into the root account (because the login screen works perfectly fine) and root also displays fine with 60hz preset. Here I deleted the kscreen folder, and my user account worked again.

How do I get 144hz to work again? Thanks in advance

Also, Programs like discord, spotify are now unresponsive. Spotify has a delay of ~30 seconds for a click to be recognized. discord freezes, as in, I cannot click anywhere after 10 minutes use, then sometimes it refreshes the rendered content, still cannot click, then it looses connection, restarts, and I am able to click again.

Chromium works fine however - except for twitch, which is a bit laggy now. Manjaro forums work beautifully however…

Please Help

Same (?) bug for me, Intel onboard grafics. After several hours KDE froze, it did kill the session and sent me back to the login-screen though (maybe because I tried alt+ctrl+del?).
Very strange behavior, the cursor moved when I moved the mouse and changed its icon depending on what was below the cursor, but all mouseclicks and keyboard inputs had no effect (alt+tab and so on).
Nothing unexpected in dmesg.
