Since I am running basically the same system (though I haven't updated for a 
couple of weeks now), I'd say it might be some kind of system configuration 
option.

All processes here, i.e. not just KDE apps, are priority 20 nice 0 by default 
and nothing changes that.

Maybe you activated some kernel/system setting which automatically renices 
stuff?

Do you see this for all users (e.g. system daemons running under their own 
user IDs)?

Cheers,
Kevin
