You need to install the proprietary nvidia driver for your GPU. The one you are using (the default one in Ubuntu) called nouveau is eternally broken (yes, I'm pessimistic about its future) and should not be used in production with real-life OpenGL applications.
I updated Kubuntu ( = Ubuntu + KDE ) to version 24.04 some weeks ago and it has kernel 6.8.0-36-generic now. I think that your case depends display drivers. Try to install nvidia own drivers.
