Systemtray's can only have one instance globally on the desktop. If
you have it in the taskbar, you can't add it to the panel.

I've only used k3b once or twice, but is it's system tray icon
optional? If so, it sounds like it is disabled, since your tray
clearly works.

IIRC there was also an older KDE specific systray protocol that
required window manager (kwin) support.  If the k3b system tray applet
shows up in KDE, perhaps this is the problem
