It looks like diald is running after all. It may not be
configured correctly, but it certainly is running (otherwise it wouldn't
show up when you run ps).

The difference in output is cause by the fact that you start it at
a different time, after other processes have launched, etc. Type "man ps"
for details on what the columns mean.

Perhaps there is a problem with dctrl, or the permissions of the
FIFO pipe...? Did the diald FAQ have anything to say about this?

Don't know what to say. My intuition says it may have something
to do with the environment diald is starting up in within your boot
scripts, or else a problem with a FIFO. Who is the diald maintainer? Can
he offer any other advice?
