Hi there,
I am confirming your observation and it looks like you found basically
the solution why it seems to be gone on my system for a while. I can
just reproduce the issue when using "XRender" as composite backend. When
switching to OpenGL 2, it seems to be fine (or at least not being
reproducable always). So there is IMHO a high chance, this is related to
the XRender backend.
Best regards,
Florian

Same issue here -- it appeared exactly when I had upgraded to
both Plasma 5.5.0 and KDE frameworks 5.17 on Dec 17, 2015.
The problem was not fixed by any F22 updates until Jan 3, 2016.

The bug is 100% reproducible on my system:
- First konsole opened is broken exactly as described by Roderick.
I should add that this konsole window is not responsive
to keyboard input either.
- Second konsole opened works just fine
- Third konsole opened works just fine
- After closing all konsole instances, the first konsole opened again has
the problem
Behavior is exactly the same regardless of whether I start konsole
from the kickoff menu, the launcher, or from a shortcut on the panel.
This is on a laptop with LVDS and external monitor (intel + nouveau
drivers),
but I doubt the presence of the external monitor is "triggering" the
problem
(I haven't tried LVDS only).
Compositor Settings:
Rendering backend: XRender
