I seem to have a similar problem, but I can not detect any relationship to 
Konsole. 
In my case it is the following: I can see the preview of some screensavers in 
the small screen but not of all of them. This applies to the ones with and 
without GL. For some of the GL ones I can see the preview, but if I choose 
the screensaver, it doesn't work properly and I get just a static snapshot of 
a moving screensaver that changes every few seconds; for example Euphoria 
(GL) works.
The Test button doesn't work for any of them, but if I move the mouse for 
example the screen jumps as if a "non-visible" screensaver had been on.

I am on a Debian with KDE 3.1 release and an NVIDIA graphics card.

Can anybody confirm this?
