[Bug 1798857] [NEW] KDE dsektop trash can stays red after empty and sometimes goes back to blue for no apparent reason, completely random when trash can stays red and turns blue

[Kubuntu]

Public bug reported:

Like, when I delete files, they go into the trash can right? Well it
turns red. It's supposed to turn blue when I empty the trash can.
Sometimes it turns blue, but most of the time it stays red. eventually
it does turn back to blue for some reason I can't figure out. This
happens on my System76 Kubuntu 18.04.1 Desktop and my Dell netbook. I
haven't used any USB thumb drives with the computers or any network
attached drives since I first installed the OS on both.

There appears to be no rhyme or reason to the trash cans colors. See my Kubuntu forums thread I started here. I'm facepalm.

It's like, super annoying. I'd like to help to get this fixed.

Here's my trash.desktop entry.
