I do not do much KDE development (MLT dev), and when I ran into this
problem I started looking into the KDE functions for the standard and
config directory lookups that kdenlive is using. I could not quite
connect all the dots immediately (it seems to want you to "trust the
man" where kde=man), and I did not want to be distracted from some
other more important task that I was really working on, so I quit
looking. I was left with the impression that it was under KDE's
control, but that there might be a CMAKE variable that affects it
other than INSTALL_PREFIX. I tried setting KDE4_DATA_DIR and failed
miserably. :-)

Try playing the clip with 'melt' on the command line.
