For those who are interested, you can replace OsdItem.qml and Osd.qml in
/usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.kde.breeze.desktop/contents/osd/
to change or remove the volume and backlight OSD. I'm currently using
OsdItem.qml: http://pastebin.com/PZ69qucR
Osd.qml: http://pastebin.com/UxvrUpAF
This makes the OSD much smaller and disappear faster. It should also be easy to
modify the files to remove the OSD.

However, the only downside is that you'll need to replace these files every
time they get updated by your package manager. You'll also need to restart
plasma for the changes to take effect
$ killall plasmashell
$ plasmashell &
$ disown # so that you can exit the terminal without killing plasmashell

Does anyone know if there's a better way of doing what I'm doing?
Or maybe a better feature request would be to add a
/etc/plasma/look-and-feel/
directory? Or does this already exist?
