Andy, It is unclear what exactly is happening. It almost sounds like there is something in your profile that is preventing loading your kglobalaccel5 at start-up, and the kill/reload does finally manage to load it correctly. Before looking further into profile problems, after you kill/restart kglobalaccel5 and have things working, rebuild the kde system config cache passing the --noincremental option to force a complete rebuild, e.g. $ kbuildsycoca5 --noincremental then restart plasma and see if that resolved the issue. If not, the next test would be to create a new user and logout/login with that account and see if the problem persists. If it does -- file a bug, if not, you know you have a problem in your profile.
