I ran into the same thing. I ended up doing a emerge -ev world to fix
mine. I just had someone else on the forums to do the same thing and it
worked for them as well.
It's a pain but it worked for me and the other person. I personally
think it is something KDE but not kdelibs or the nvidia drivers. I had
re-emerged them before a few times with no help.
Maybe someone has a better idea.

I'm definatly a user of the video group.
I'll try the emerge -ev world in a bit here, at the moment I'm KDE
free but it can't hurt to try.
