One of the many steps that I tried is a fresh ~/.kde, and I can confirm 
that this does not help in resolving the issue.

Actually, I recall that the Nixos manual mentions that it's possible to 
test your system in a virtual machine. I wonder if this could help in 
ruling out hardware issues. Virtualized hardware is hopefully more 
deterministic among different systems than real hardware...
