#4  0x00007f285fa0fccf in QQmlPropertyCacheCreator<QQmlTypeCompiler>::propertyCacheForObject(QmlIR::Object const*, QQmlBindingInstantiationContext const&, QQmlError*) const () from /lib64/libQt6Qml.so.6
Solution
Likely you've run into this bug (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418148) which is itself a QT bug( https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-62302).

Resolved this by wiping all qmlcaches from my home directory:

cd ~/.cache && find . -type d -name '*qmlcache*' -exec rm -rf {} \;
