I ran into this (or in my case, a *very* similar problem) last night also. I 
did not want the icon for hdd showing up, but also wanted to keep my /dev/hdd 
listing (in my case not a supermount) and the desktop icon I had added on my 
own (hdd is a cdrom in my case). I also was getting the floppy icon I did not 
want.

Here's what worked for me as a fix.

using /usr/share/mdk/kde/root-interface/kdesktoprc as an example, I added a 
[Devices] section to my ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc containing:

exclude=kdedevice/hdd_mounted,kdedevice/hdd_unmounted,
kdedevice/floppy_mounted,kdedevice/floppy_unmounted

(the above has a carriage return NOT in the original ASCII)

Hope this helps.

Very best regards;

Bob Finch
