I'll have a look at echo $DISPLAY when I get back home.  In the meantime
I've got a workaround, placing a script in ./kde/Autostart that basically
does 

#!/bin/bash
xhost +

This allows all apps to work properly, but is really just addressing the
symptoms and not the cause of the problem.

Thanks for the pointer.
