I can't help much, I guess you use 14.0 and here is what I found as it
happened that I had tdebase open. When you say "kdesktop is not always
loaded" - does it mean that it loads sometimes? Under which condition?
In my opinion this is a problem with initializing / reading configuration
whatever.

But this was changed in master, so might be a newer version would mitigate
it.

https://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdebase/tree/kdesktop/main.cc?h=r14.0.x

https://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdebase/tree/kdesktop/lockeng.cc?h=r14.0.x

Code says kdesktop/main.cc:267

261 KDesktopSettings::instance(kdesktop_name + "rc");

    bool x_root_hack = args->isSet("x-root");
    bool wait_for_kded = args->isSet("waitforkded");

    // This MUST be created before any widgets are created
267 SaverEngine saver;

and

139 configure();

394 // create a new config obj to ensure we read the latest options
395 KDesktopSettings::self()->readConfig();
