Public bug reported:

This bug was already filed in the KDE Bugtracking System on K3B project,
see here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=251479

See bug description + comment 1-2 there.

Comment 2 on the above bug report mentions a workaround. As far as I
understood the main problem is that KDE tries to find normalize audio by
checking /usr/bin/normalize instead /usr/bin/normalize-auido . Now the
workaround is about tricking K3B by renaming normalize-audio to
normalize and then creating a script named normalize-auido in its place.

Now my guess is that if someone made the workaround steps desctibed in
comment 2 a step of the install procedure for normalize-audio, that
would solve the problem of the K3B vs. normalize-audio integration.

I guess waiting for the upstream K3B project to fix this issue is
hopeless (the linked bug was posted ~2 years ago, nobody even cared to
reproduce and confirm it). The upstream normalize-audio project doesn't
seem to be active since 2005, neither.
