It really doesn't have very many dependencies
More a result of how you did your install, minimal + adding..
autoremove just looks for packages marked as automatically installed that have no current packages installed that depend on them
(I'd gather that a typical 'full' kubuntu install would have kubuntu-desktop installed which would depend on alsa-base
Code:
apt-cache rdepends alsa-base
alsa-base
Reverse Depends:
gstreamer1.0-alsa
xubuntu-desktop
volumeicon-alsa
ubuntustudio-desktop
ubuntu-touch
ubuntu-gnome-desktop
lubuntu-core
kubuntu-desktop
kubuntu-active
initramfs-tools-tcos
flite
ubuntu-desktop
linux-sound-base
libflite1
gstreamer1.0-alsa
gstreamer0.10-alsa
alsa-utils
libsoup is used by gnome apps, unity, ect (gnome desktop), run an apt-cache rdepends on.
(apt-cache rdepends libsoup2.4-1
Any packages you believe shouldn't be in the autoremove list just mark as manually installed
