I confirm, I have the same problem and I have found the same solution. I'm looking forward to something smarter

Happened to me recently as well - and I'm not on kubuntu but on ArchLinux. That was on kernel 2.6.29.1-4 - although I got a new kernel for the 686 machine today (where I noticed this behaviour) I'll probably have to wait for KDE 4.2.3. Fingers crossed the new KDE will sort it...
