Sorry to cross post. I put this on the KDE list yesterday but no
responses. As I run Kubuntu I thought that it would be a better place
to start.
Starting yesterday morning both of my KDE machines no longer show a
system title bar or border for Chrome, and only Chrome. All other
apps are fine. Right clicking the Chrome tab area has a checkbox for
'Use system title bar and borders' but it does nothing. Chrome
version 94.0.4606.54.
Losing the title bar means losing (as far as I know) the ability to
pin an instance of Chrome to all virtual desktops which I use for
browser streamed media - YouTube, Netflix, etc. I've switched that
window to Firefox for the time being.
As Gentoo is usually a bit further forward I wondered if anyone here
using Chrome and KDE has seen this issue?

Mine is also missing the title bar. However the "Use system
title bar and borders" /does/ restore the normal title bar for me. This
is also version 94.0.4606.54 on KDE.

Not a solution, but a workaround:
I’ve been using keyboard shortcuts for this kind of function for many years.
Super+A = Window on all desktops
Super+F = Fullscreen
Super+Shift+F = Toggle window border
Super+S = Shade window
Super+T = Window on top

I use Fluxbox and had the same issue. Found this today:
https://piunikaweb.com/2021/09/23/google-chrome-94-use-system-title-bar-and-borders-checkbox-broken/
To fix the problem:
<start>
you will need to head over to the chrome://flags page and find the
“use-ozone-platform” setting.
Make sure to change it from default to disabled, restart your Chrome
browser and you will be good to go."
<end>
I can confirm that this worked for me here.

Actually, it is fixed but for anyone who might run into this there
was a recommendation somewhere along the way to enable Ozone in the chrome://flags section. I had done but hadn't looked at my log file
which apparently were filling up with ozone error messages every 3
seconds or so.
I disabled the ozone flag and now I have KDE title bars.
