I never had this problem. The call "mw->mixer()->readSetFromHWforceUpdate();" 
in KMixWindow::applyPrefs() should make sure that all information (icon, 
tooltip, context menu, ... ) will get properly refreshed.

This patch doesn't look so good.
1) IMO it creates a memory leak, by not freeing/deleting the old 
KMixDockWidget.
2) After a config dialog apply we will have two KMixDockWidget's, after the 
next "apply" we have three KMixDockWidget's, and so on.
There might be several strange side effects, because of still connected 
signal/slots. Comment 8 in Bug 111152 
( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111152#c8 ) might very well be 
explainable by this.
3) As far as I see, it updates the pixmap, but not the tooltip (and probably 
some more stuff like mute state in the context menu).

I'll try to do a checkout of KDE3.5 RC1. Any hints on reproducing this bug is 
greatly appreciated.
