I tried four Ubuntu LiveCDs:

- 8.04.1 Live Ubuntu (32-bit)
- 8.04.1 Live Kubuntu (32-bit)
- 8.04.1 Live Ubuntu (64-bit)
- 8.04.1 Live Kubuntu (64-bit)

While all of them may have exhibited the second problem to some extent, the first, more serious problem for all practical purposes did not exist on the KDE CDs.

I installed kubuntu-desktop on my normal GNOME Ubuntu machine. When I go into KDE, the problem no longer happens. Killing the mixer applet and closing volume control programs on GNOME doesn't help the problem. (gnome-settings-daemon obviously is still running to handle keyboard volume controls, my best demonstration of the issue.)
