I'm also on KDE wayland and have this exact issue

So I had the same issue and this KWin Rule fixes it for me:

[Flameshot workaround (#2364)]
Description=Flameshot workaround (#2364)
above=true
aboverule=2
fullscreenrule=2
position=0,0
positionrule=2
title=flameshot
titlematch=1
types=1
wmclass=flameshot flameshot
wmclasscomplete=true
wmclassmatch=1

I do not remember where I found it and you can use it at your own risk (though I think there's very little risk here).
It has the #2364 in the comment but I don't think it refers to an issue on this repo even though #2364 does reference the same issue.
Hope it works for you.

@YvesCB That worked for me! Thanks!

After the rule, I had to set Kronkhite to ignore flameshot as well.
