Different users can have different settings
The root /1/ has own settings. You could change the root's settings by starting the System Settings with the command:
kdesudo systemsettings
Root's gtk apps
As default the root's folder doesn't have the link to the oxygen-gtk.
To fix this you need to copy the hidden file .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 (note the dot !) from your home directory to the /root/ with name .gtkrc-2.0 (note the dot !) /2/, /3/.
Command line:
sudo cp .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 /root/.gtkrc-2.0
If you have the Root Actions Servicemenu /4/ installed you could use it to copy and rename.
System's default mouse theme (KDM cursor)

Sometimes
Quote: "Sometimes, in KDE applications under my ordinary user, fonts spontaneously change to Ubuntu font - why this happens and how can I avoid it?"
Yes, I have noticed this. Why - beats me. The Kubuntu is resetting to the default Kubuntu settings (/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde4-profile/default/share/config/)
To fix this i have edited the Kubuntu defaults: /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde4-profile/default/share/config/kdeglobals.
Default Kubuntu kdeglobals has:
[General]
BrowserApplication[$e]=!rekonq
XftHintStyle=hintmedium
font=Ubuntu,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
menuFont=Ubuntu,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
desktopFont=Ubuntu,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
toolBarFont=Ubuntu,8,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
smallestReadableFont=Ubuntu,8,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
taskbarFont=Ubuntu,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Looking my own kdeglobals: ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals and copying them to the defaults. Here:

Try linking to
70-force-bitmapsinstead.70-yes-bitmapsdoesn't seem to have anything in it. (This is taken from your link.) This worked for me on Ubuntu 12.04.The process is like this (Added by a user on 14.04)
Then do this to update settings
