Finally sorted this one: Denis Barbier responded to my post to the
bugtracker: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=345454
The solution, in my case, was to replace the deprecated 'uk' with 'gb'
as the keyboard layout in xorg.conf
Switching consoles now works.
Thanks to all for hints/

My feeling is that the problem is more fundamental than KDE config, as
