Garuda linux changes after booting

Hello guys, I'm having some problems with garuda linux. First my headphone didn't work. Then I restarted the computer to check if it's working then. But after restarting, everything has changed. I mean there's no icons, only three. Here is a screenshot of my desktop after opening. Also the window buttons(close, minimize, ...) has moved to right from the left.

PS: Sometimes the system changes after booting up. Before my terminal has changed. Is that a bug or something?

Edit 1;
Here is my inxi -Faz

I think you should reset the default settings in the Garuda assistant flagging latte and log off and on.
The changes after rebooting could be due to previous updates without rebooting.
Anyway, looking at your kernel version I think you should update again and reboot, then reset the config.
If you have lost the panel and application launcher, open the Garuda assistant from Krunner (normally shortcuts could be alt+space or alt+F2).

I updated the system and changed into the default settings of latte in Garuda assistant, and restarted. It's working fine now. But icons seems small. By the way thank you!
