Well, this is kinda embarrassing.  Logging on to kde-plasma gives me the 
gnome-shell with what look like kde fallback mode menu bar at the 
bottom.  Anyway, tried to find widget style but don't have a clue what 
to look for.  Going back to just gnome and launching k3b from a gnome 
terminal leads to the same issues, but do get some msgs that may be useful:

KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a 
valid main component instead of a fake component, this usually means you 
tried to call i18n related functions before your main component was 
created. You should not do that since it most likely will not work

I'm going to do a kde only install and see what I can find.
