This is being reported in multiple places by multiple people on Arch-based distros.

What version of the accountsservice package do you have installed?

pacman -Q | grep accountsservice 

EDIT: it seems like a bug in the latest accountsservice package. Downgrading the package and rebooting resolves the issue.

Goodbye to KDE. 5.24 is still in BETA but is supposed to be released Feb - 08 - 2022...and 5.24 will release as LTS. But Gnome is faster in Garuda - Decline Gnome software & components during post-installation. No Bloat in Gnome Desktop - Garuda should create a barebones edition with Gnome desktop.

We dropped the GNOME Barebones sometimes ago.

Nothing good happens unless you do @DarkLegion2000 it.
So, we wait.
