    Description

      When importing PySide6 into a Python script that has logging set up with the default `logging` module, PySide6 adds an extra handler to the root logger.

      This requires the following code in order to get the normal behavior from the logger:

      # Create the logger
      logger = logging.getLogger()
      logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
      
      # Remove PySide6 (or other) handlers
      for h in logger.handlers:
          logger.removeHandler(h)
      

      I have confirmed this issue by running clean scripts with nothing in them but logging code. They work as intended until PySide6 is imported.

      Please see the following posts for details:

      Thanks.
