I see the same thing on my system with dnfdragora.  It pops up saying
there are updates even though I've updated with dnf.  I think the only
way to get rid of the message is to use the actual application to do
the updates.  Then it clears whatever internal flag it has set.  It
doesn't check the rpm database to see if the updates it finds are
already installed; it assumes it is the only program doing updates on
the system.  Perhaps you could neglect doing a dnf update for a day or
two and see if the KDE update program does them and removes the flag.
If it is like gnome, it should do it when you shutdown.
