I'm pretty sure the problem starts with pulse. I was impacted by this bug, I first noticed it a little bit before Jan 21st. My dpkg.log shows that the pulseaudio package on my system was upgraded to 4.0 on Jan 20. The previous Debian version was 2.0.
After uninstalling pulse and just using phonon, the bug goes away. Before getting to that point I had also tried downgrading kmix from 4.11.3 to 4.10.5 and the problem still happened. Unfortunately downgrading pulse back to 2.0 looks difficult as it would remove a bunch of KDE packages. (I haven't investigated what is actually depending on libpulse yet). What seems to be happening is changes in a stream volume change the master volume. AKA if you wiggle the slider for controlling a stream volume the master volume changes. So when when the notification system forces its stream volume to 100%, it changes the master volume. The part I don't currently understand is why Amaroks stream volume doesn't change until the next track.
