Your window needs to get the list of all other windows, find the one directly below it, and send a mouse click programmatically, using something like accessibility API.

i thought there was a way to do it in kde window settings
different approach: if you see mixed content of two windows, it doesn't really matter which one is on top.
if you have many stacked, it's a different thing. maybe you could use nested wayland sessions to group all other windows into one, then you're dealing with only two again and can have the group on top.
I actually tried this right after I made this post, and it was not where near as smooth as I wanted. KDE would put the window that I had assigned to all desktops on top, whenever I would switch virtual desktops.
I found a solution though, it looks like mpv has support.
