you have to remove kmplayer, which is not part of debian.
dpkg -P kmplayer

if you want kmplayer:
you can get the sources for kmplayer and remove all references to
x-ms-wma.desktop and x-ms-wmv.desktop (use grep -r )
these sources are ready for debian, so 
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot should make you corrected .deb packages.
