I ran into the same thing and I had to do a emerge -e world to get mine
working.  I wish I knew which package(s) needed to be remerged but I
have no clue.  I think it was a KDE one though.  It was working long
before the emerge finished.

Funny thing is, this only seemed to affect a few people, me included of
course.
