Why would KDE have separate left/right volume controls? Just in case one ear has more wax than the other? No slider for L/R balance, and then you have overall volume?
Having separate left & right volume controls in the settings is the same as having a control for volume and a control for balance. On the widget in the "panel" that one interacts with on the desktop, the left & right are presented as a single volume (per app & per device in KDE), so we only interact with a single volume control unless we want to dig a little deeper into fine-grained settings.
