Thanks for the report!

I have now found the time to test this and I am not able to see any problem. Unfortunately it just works. 

I have tried version 0.9.1 (using latest versions of Qt5 and KF5 libraries). I have also tried latest, unreleased, version of kup.

If you find that it still happens for you, please reopen this bug report and we will dig deeper.
