After googling around, I found the KDE config file that turns things off...

"mediamanagerrc" reads:

[Global]
AutostartEnabled[$i]=false
CdPollingEnabled[$i]=false
HalBackendEnabled[$i]=false

(The "[$i]" "locks out" the normal user from changing these settings) 
Unfortunatly, it didn't change the interruptions. I'll have to keep 
trying different things.

Keep the suggestions coming... I'll just have to go until I find the 
culprit.
