In master I get the solution

In [46]: sympy.solve(eq.coeffs(), [K_C, tau_I, tau_D])
Out[46]:
⎡                  ⎧     -(τ₁ + τ₂)         τ₁⋅τ₂               ⎫⎤
⎢{K_C: 0, τ_I: 0}, ⎨K_C: ───────────, τ_D: ───────, τ_I: τ₁ + τ₂⎬⎥
⎣                  ⎩     K⋅(φ - τ_c)       τ₁ + τ₂              ⎭⎦

It looks like whatever fixed it will be included in 1.0 (it's also
fixed in the 1.0 release branch).
