Description of problem: My KDE 4 Pops up three annoying pop-ups whenever a new Amarok song is played, instead of one. This irritates me to no end. How can I fix this problem? Reproducible: every time.

I can't reproduce here (on x86_64) , but i'm already using 4.7.0 Could you please test again on thursday ? (KDE SC 4.7.0 should be out @ this moment).
Hi John, thanks for your reply. (In reply to comment #1) > I can't reproduce here (on x86_64) , but i'm already using 4.7.0 > Could you please test again on thursday ? (KDE SC 4.7.0 should be out @ this > moment). OK, it's already Monday and it's still happening with KDE 4.7.0. Same problem exactly. It's possible that it's a misconfiguration problem which KDE cannot quite handle properly. And I get x3 pop-ups for most other KDE notifications. How can I investigate it further? Should I report it upstream?

And it's hard to know how to get KDE to the point where it exhibits the bug. So I guess what I'm going to do now is to bisect ~/.kde4/share/config . Well, I guess that's one way to spend an evening... These bugs give my life purpose. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish

Can you shed any light on the problem? I am unable to get any help on #kde on Freenode. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish

Hi John, (In reply to comment #6) > i would try to remove thoses lines : > thanks for your advice. However, per advice from people on #kde (who finally answered) I decided to move away the offending file, because it acquired craft. Someone told me he nukes it ever 8 months. Now the offending symptom has disappeared, but so have my virtual desktops' wallpaper's configuration, which I'll have to reconfigure. So I'm closing this bug because apparently it's a quality (or a misfeature) of KDE's architecture.
