I am having the same issue with 4.6.3, on  both archlinux and gentoo

Comment 2 Jekyll Wu 2011-05-14 13:24:57 UTC

This should be  caused by one duplicated line within plasma/generic/containmentactions/applauncher/launch.cpp :

    connect(m_menu, SIGNAL(triggered(QAction*)), this, SLOT(switchTo(QAction*)));
    connect(m_menu, SIGNAL(triggered(QAction*)), this, SLOT(switchTo(QAction*)));

Please check the patch attatched within following bug report on archlinux.org
