Yes, remove ~/.config/menus/applications.menu, I'm not sure who or what puts 
it there, but it tends to mess things up.

If deleting it doesn't help because something keeps putting it back, you can 
tell KDE to ignore the directory by adding the following two lines to the 
kdeglobals file in your profile:

[KDE Resource Restrictions][$i]
xdgconf-menu=false

Waldo
