Yup it is runinng:

% pgrep -lf kglobal
2197 kdeinit4: kdeinit4: kglobalaccel

If I kill it, the "qdbus" query above then fails.
If I run it again, it gets back to working (though it's then different
in pgrep output as it's kinda standalone and not launched by kdeinit4).

2195 vs 2197, what a chance. =)

Just the same on FreeBSD:

% pkg_info -W /usr/local/kde4/bin/kglobalaccel
[...] was installed by package kdebase-runtime-4.5.5
% pkg_info -W /usr/local/kde4/lib/kde4/kded_khotkeys.so
[...] was installed by package kdebase-workspace-4.5.5

Oh, right. I tried that just now: "mv .kde4 .kde4.bak" creates a new
profile which does NOT show the problem: hotkeys work correctly.

I then did:
% mv .kde4.bak .kde4
% rm .kde4/share/config/khotkeysrc
% rm .kde4/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc

...nothing changed.

What other configuration stuff is involved in hotkey managing?
Keyboard layout maybe? I guess not... but I'm using compose:rwin, FWIW.

cheers,
