I've been watching this with interest.  I've never had any problems with 
KPackageKit, but my ~/.kde/share/config/KPackageKit only has

[CheckUpdate]                                            
interval=3600 

I have noticed recently that I can update, then find new updates being 
notified quite soon afterwards.  I think this is a recent change to behaviour.
