I am not getting any of this in konsole. systemsettings5 starts without any
funfair.

Thanks for this Peter, I just discovered on this PC I had not added dbus in
the default run level. Interestingly, dbus *is* running all the same:
# rc-update -s -v | grep dbus
dbus |
# ps axf | grep dbus
1701 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system
2763 ? S 0:00 dbus-launch --autolaunch

3849 pts/2 S+ 0:00 \_ grep --colour=auto dbus
So, something must be starting it - probably kdestart/plasmastart or whatever
sddm is running to start the plasma session.
