I had the same problem only it didn't show any addresses, but a couple, no idea 
where that selection 
came from. 
The other thing that I had to fix was installing virtuoso-minimal after it 
complained that it 
couldn't find virtuoso.
By doing a search on *.vcf with "Dolphin - Tools - Find File ..." and selecting 
"Show hidden files" I 
found my contact data and could restore from there.

There were a couple of things I noticed:
- Contacts in KDE 4.4 get rather random names for their .vcf files and they're 
stored in 
~/.local/share/contacts/ where each contact has it's own .vcf file
- Contacts in KDE 4.3 were (/seem to be) stored in ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/ in 1 
file.
- The default contact list (in KDE 4.4) is named "std.vcf", but I couldn't find 
a std.vcf file on my 
file system, but it looks to point to the ~/.local/share/contacts folder
- When you add another address book you do need to specify a file or a folder 
as the resource 
location.

Based on that, I have a couple of questions:
- Is ~/.local/share/contacts the resource location of the default address book 
or is it's Akonadi's 
cache or sth like that?
- Is the preferred location of address books changed from 
~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/ to 
~/.local/share/contacts with the upgrade from KDE 4.3 to 4.4?
- What (files) should I backup in order to get my PIM data back (after a fresh 
install for example)?
