The problem isn't consistent. Whenever (okay 3x) there's a substantial kde upgrade, I seem to get the attachments functionality back. So my theory is that the installation restarts something which should be restarted when the user starts up some other window manager. I clearly remember regaining the functionality after the 2.1-final upgrade. I have lost it since.
