I do not ever recall seeing this problem, but I will try to reproduce.
Is it only when you click in the timeline while a clip is actively
playing in the Clip Monitor?

OK, will take a look. I will warn you that I know Split View in the
TImeline Monitor is broken - do not even bother to try. Beyond that, I
plan to disable the Record Monitor and related sections of the
Preferences dialog until some options become available there.

In addition, there are cosmetic issues, but my installation of KDE is
about 6 months old. Do you see extra 1px black frames/boxes around the
widgets in the status bar? There are some additional lines/borders in
the tab containers - maybe the dock widget. Lastly, the left and right
edges of the windows need a little border. I am having fun to figure
these things out.

The biggest thing that I like about working on OS X is that I can
build, run, and debug directly in Qt Creator - including MLT. On
Linux, I can only run kdenlive from its installed location
necessitating a 'make install' as part of the dev/debug cycle.
