By default Konsole does not use the window title provided by the shell because it is typically not very useful - instead it generates a custom tab title based on the current directory and running program, unless you are running 'ssh' in which case the window title is used as Konsole doesn't know what is happening on the remote machine.

You can set the format for the tab title via Settings -> Edit Current Profile -> Tabs and changing the "Tab title format" and "Remote tab title format" settings.  If you want to use the window title provided by the shell then you can do that by clicking "Insert -> Window title set by shell" (which inserts the '%w' place holder into the tab title)
