KDE menu in center of task bar

Why is the KDE Application Menu (and other things that open from the task bar), opening in the center of the task bar?
How do I prevent that from happening?
Moving it using Super + left click (and drag) does not stick. All future menus return to the open in center behavior. This is from the Live KDE USB.

Thanks!

Switch to X11 (from Wayland).
