I cannot reproduce.

As expected...

No. Title in inherited from ox-latex.el and thus works exactly as in
the LaTeX backend. I don't know if I like this, as both subject and
title is defined in scrlttr2 (the latter in inaccessible from
ox-koma-letter).
Untitled is defined in KOMA-script and you didn't appreciate it's
meaning. Try to compare subject:titeled to untiteled. Hint:
(un)titled governs whether it says "subject: mysubject" or
"mysubject".
I think you want to /suppress/ subject-generation. This is archived
with #+OPTIONS: subject:nil.
Here's an example working from emacs -q and git-emacs:
#+TITLE: A simple letter
#+CLOSING: Yours truly,
#+SIGNATURE: Jane
#+OPTIONS: subject:nil
* Pre :noexport:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(require 'ox-koma-letter)
(org-koma-letter-plug-into-ox)
(add-to-list 'org-latex-packages-alist '("AUTO" "babel" nil))
#+END_SRC
* opening
compare the above with =subject:nil=
* FROM :from:
Some Street 1
* TO :to:
John Doe

Don't panic!!!
