I recall you once did have an option for plasma on wayland.
You still have a
/usr/share/wayland-sessions/plasmawayland.desktop
file?
yes:

While my first priority is wayland in gnome, I definitely do want:
* wayland in plasma (when it's available and the default for plasma);
* to retain gnome on Xorg; and
* to retain plasma on xorg
as fall-backs. This week certainly taught me the value of fall-backs.
I was glad I still had windows-7 (slow, cumbersome, and bad as it is)
on this workstation. And I do occasionally use plasma.
F34 makes Plasma (Wayland) default.
I won't be upgrading to F-34 until October. I can wait until then for
plasma on wayland.
You may want to consider using sddm, at least to test.
Is that for testing gnome on wayland or plasma on wayland or both?
I'll have to hold on this until tomorrow evening. (I have no desire to
watch the oscars anyway!)
With the list of "desktop" files you showed in an earlier post it would
see you have installed
quite a bit of "extras".
On my "work" system I keep it simple and have only
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ ll -1 /usr/share/wayland-sessions /usr/share/xsessions
/usr/share/wayland-sessions:
total 4
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2769 Jan 15 01:46 plasmawayland.desktop
/usr/share/xsessions:
total 4
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2611 Jan 15 01:46 plasma.desktop
Is that causing problems? I'm not sure why I did that. But most
likely, because I was not familiar with the various desktops, I gave
myself the chance to try all (or most?) of them and choose. I routinely
use ksysguard and k3b (from plasma), and caja (from mate).
One of the major reasons I'm pursuing wayland is that I'm concerned that
Xorg will eventually be "sunset". I don't want to be caught off-guard.
I'd like to be ready well in advance. I'm not dissatisfied with Xorg.
