All of it. Those pieces of plasma are started with X every time. So you are
loading the parts of the plasma desktop necessary to support klipper (both
plasma and TDE use differing versions), plasmashell, krunner, etc.. should
have different names, but I wouldn't be surprised if plasma wasn't attempting
to put its toolbar on the screen at the same time.

Further checks with top, ps axf, etc.. would be needed to confirm if you have
2 clipboard managers, 2 wallets or the like running at the same time all
fighting for the same systray -- whichever desktop that happens to be.
