I got a kernel update the day after this bug was filed. And for now the bug has not returned.
I'm now on kernel 5.2.11-200.fc30.x86_64

And now the problem is back again. Still on kernel 5.2.11-200.

The bug has completely gone after upgrade from kernel 5.2* to 5.3*.
So it was probably not a Gnome error. But it was not present i KDE under 5.2*
