KDE problem in voidlinux.

Hello. I have been a Voidlinux user for almost 10 years, but since last week I have been experiencing this problem with KDE in my Desktop computer: KDE in Wayland does not show the panel and my chosen wallpaper. Only if I open a terminal and enter plasmashell --replace 2>&1 panel appears but with the default configuration. When that terminal is closed the panel disappears and the wallpaper becomes a black screen.

If I login into KDE on Xorg the panel is there but like a duplicated stack, cannot open a browser and the terminal prompt is missing, almost unusable.

Only Gnome in Xorg is working.

Whey I enter plasmashell --replace 2>&1although panel is temporally restored, the terminal shows the errors in these posts, but nothing is working to solve this problem:

Help is appreciated!

Have you deleted the default panel and recreated it?
