Did you associate the old png to the script that starts koreader via the kobo start menu? If not it should have no effect at all. Or did you do it in any other way?

Any ideas?
I see, I should have mentioned this in the installation instructions: If you start nickelkoreaderloop.sh or koreadernickelloop.sh (you find them in the home menu > "koreader additons") you can switch from one reader to the other. The turned koreader image will bring you from nickel to the koreader. If however you started nickel not by one of these two scripts, it will you bring back to the menu.

This seems to be the "normal" behaviour that you reported before.

Try to open .kobo/kbmenu/runsettings.txt with a unix-style edtor and look whether never has got actually written to it, if not write it yourself.
Code:
runmenu=never
if this does not help, deactivate the menu by reinstalling FW 3.4.1. After copying the files to .kobo (select "handle update" > "install update")
