Definitely this. I see "OK" and think: what's Oklahoma got to do with it? And I'm not even American. (Okay, so that's a bit of an exaggeration, but still close.)
I'd also add that there can be a contextual aspect to this. Some people talk in abbreviations, or in abrupt syllables, so there are some places where I might use "OK" to emphasise how it is said."
