You might try going into the configure your desktop Or what was the old KDE control center and choosing Components>Session Manager and check on "Restore Manually Saved session" then log out and log back in again. If it saved your settings then go back to the same place and check it back to "Restore previous session" and it should always come back as you set it up. It sounds like it is remembering what you had set when you logged on before making changes. Otherwise you may have to go to the config files for the various things like sound and make changes directly to them. HTH
