so i decided to take a quick look, and look what i found in 
kdebase/kicker/kicker/core/container_applet.cpp:

<-- snip -->
void AppletContainer::setBackground()
{
    // can happen in perverse moments when an applet isn't loaded but the 
contanier
    // get's asked to update it's bground anyways
    if (!_applet)
        return;

    _applet->unsetPalette();
<-- snip -->

try setting the palette not on the applet widget itself but it's children (or 
a child widget). the palette clearing seen above is necessary to make changes 
between backgrounds at run time work properly, though it's probably a bit 
heavy handed. it really only needs to mess with the background property. 

try replacing:

    _applet->unsetPalette();

with:

    _aplet->setPaletteBackgroundPixmap(QPixmap());

and see if that works better with your applet. if it does, try changing the 
background settings of the panel (transparent, non-transparent, background, 
no background, etc) and see if it all still works properly. 

assuming you have kicker's sources around =) if not. .... let me know and i'll 
try and get the testing done...
