I can confirm that this works for me as well, as it did for Adeodato, by
making the requisite edit and restarting KDE.

I had "enableXft=true", but "useXft=false".  As a bonus, when I restarted,
I had proper anti-aliasing in Mozilla, GTK+ apps, Qt apps, etc., which I'd
never had on this workstation (which has been running Debian unstable for
years), and I never knew why.

I don't regard my report as resolved, though, as the original problem is a
perverse situation no matter how the user has things configured.

Thanks for pointing out this much-improved workaround!
