I've tried it with SMplayer, Kdevelop,  Kate, KMyMoney, and KolourPaint
and they all exhibit the same behaviour.  Gnome and other X apps don't
exhibit the same behaviour, it seems limited to KDE apps.

I'll try to strip down a config and see if I can't find what option does
it.  I think I might also move my .kde4 folder temporarily and see if it
still happens.

Thanks for the reply.
