Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-gnome

This is most notable with the network manager frontends, both nm-applet
and knetworkmanager startup up in the KDE system tray, display double
notifications, and the nm-applet appears to win out when detecting wifi
devices and it ends up prompting me for the password each time.   I
suppose this is because the Gnome key ring manager is unavailable.
Network manager password management in KDE should be managed between
knetworkmanager and kwallet.  Also if I look at my running processes
after a fresh login I see other Gnome applications run in the
background, needlessly using resources.

Adding NotShowIn=KDE to the end of any Gnomish .desktop file in
/etc/xdg/autostart resolves the problem for me.  Could this statement be
evaluated for future inclusion in the referenced packages?

gnome-volume-manager, update-notifier, evolution, network-manager-gnome,
gnome-power-manager
