I have Kubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. Last few weeks KDE started to 'freeze' occasionally. Is this a known issue? Is there any way how I can gracefully close/restart just the UI from terminal?
But most important, what should I check to collect some usefull logs or details that could help to determine the cause of the problem?
Detailed description:
KDE just gets stuck and I can not do anything in the graphical UI. It seems that this usually happens when i switch desktops or even windows on the same desktop (but I cannot reproduce). I can move the mouse cursor, the music is still playing in the background (clementine - and I can control it via keyboards shortcuts), I can log in to the console using Ctrl+Alt+F1, I can log in via SSH... But I can not control KDE anymore - I can not move windows, switches desktops, close windows, opening apps or anyting similar. Once this happened during skype call and the call was not interrupted and i was able to communicate.
This started to happen only few weeks ago, it hasn't been happening before. I haven't installed any new hardware lately.
Technical details that might be relevant:

I have 128GB of memory overclocked to 3600MHZ (but i have it like this for 3 years without an issue). Also memtest seems ok (memtester 1G 10).
Thanks for any advice
