What is your konsole version?

For version before 2.9, the window title is always the same as the title 
of active tab. So if you want it to work, you have to include %w (which 
expands to the well known window title)in the tab title format of konsole.

Since 2.9, there is one konsole option to allow window title being 
different from tab title. You can find it under settings -> configure 
konsole -> general
