my workaround to fix this was to "sudo mv ~/.kde ~/.kdebackup" and then restart kde. After that, you will start out with a "first time" KDE setup, and you'll have to migrate your settings over, either by copying over the .kde directory (which I did), or by hacking the files for the settings you want (probably better than what I did). Hope it helps somebody else!
