I had the same problem which disapeared after adding these two lines to
my /usr/local/bin/startkde:

--------OO--------
#!/bin/sh
export KDEDIR=/usr/local                <==== ADDED
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin        <==== ADDED
DUMMY=${KDEDIR:?"KDEDIR is not set!"}

kaudioserver &
kfm &
kcontrol -init &

kbgndwm &
krootwm &
kpanel &

kwm
--------OO--------

(Adapt to your KDEDIR)

I have 'exec /usr/local/bin/startkde' in .Xclients
Hope it helps
