Um the icon does show up in the bottom bar and under
the kde pludown menu....... Launching from either results
in a bouncing icon and no app started.

Manual launch from the terminal, just returns empty.
nice idea! but:

#  killall kmix
kmix: no process found


Besides the problem survives a emerge -e system
and subsequent reboot, so the next blunt instrument
is emerge -e world......

All the kde packages are going to get rebuilt....

I noticed this:

root@fireball / # ps aux | grep kmix
dale 667 0.0 0.8 453144 33048 ? Sl Jan28 0:00 kdeinit4: kmix [kdeinit] -session 10d8df6f6b000124700450100000112470008_1281663401_3252 root 27998 0.0 0.0 6188 572 pts/0 R+ 11:30 0:00 grep --colour=auto kmix
root@fireball / #

killall kmix may not work in that case. It appears it is running as part of kdeinit. May not want to kill that unless you have nothing open that matters. Not sure what all that would kill.

You may could just kill that specific process tho. That may help. Another thought, do you not have a Kmix icon in the panel? That's where mine is. It looks like a speaker with some sound coming out of it.
