There's a similar service with gnome (gnome-settings-daemon). While
theme information is persisted and used automatically, GTK
applications (and, I imagine, QT applications) don't automatically
determine the DPI for your monitor, or if they do, don't scale
appropriately. kcminit and gnome-settings-daemon will do so.

I believe that's the issue, anyway.
