You might want to try the kde neon ppa to get up to latest, I upgraded 
to 5.7.2 for hopefully some fixes yesterday, and I'll have to say, there 
are a lot of things working better now/fixed.  So far my displays 
haven't freaked out when being unplugged, though my taskbar is still 
going to the wrong display.

wget -qO - 'http://archive.neon.kde.org/public.key' | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-add-repository http://archive.neon.kde.org/unstable
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade

Side note, if you haven't tried it in plasma5, KDE Connect is an awesome 
little android (those i-things too) app that pairs the pc and phone 
now.  It's great, when I get a call, my music will mute automatically, I 
can browse the file systems (wasn't working in plasma 5.5, default 
16.04), automatic screen saver suppression when connected, lots more.  I 
really dig this, you can find it in system settings under "hardware".
