Make sure you have this patch: https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/x11?id=72cf52e15e68aaf2f3fa097bc2faf052c78b1b64

Typically, settings like system time require root access to modify. And KDE tends to disable that access for regular users.

Are you using KDE version 5.27.8 from the quarterly packages?

I think it is a bug in KDE 5.27.8 - In versions before and after 5.27.8 the Regional Settings can be changed normal.
But not in 5.27.8.
I'm now running 5.27.9 and the settings can be changed normal as it should be.

Not in my experience.

For a non-root user, group memberships are significant.
