I start kde from my normal user with 'startx'. Most of the time I do not get a command prompt back after kde termination and have to 'ctrl-c'. When the 'startx' fails, I have to su -, cd to /tmp and delete everything kded related that I can find. The really critical piece seems to be 'rm -r .ICE-unix'. I'm using the version of kde installed fro the 4.4 install CD.
