I don't know what tool you used for "complete removal" but they rarely remove 
the ~/.config files.  Try logging into your non-KDE, failsafe gui or tty3 or 
something and removing the ~/.kde4-config files (that's not what they are 
named, but you should be able to identify them,  If KDE4 works like KDE 2 & 3 
and Gnome, that should trigger the default settings to be recreated when you 
log into kde4 again.

I haven't tried this and can't since I didn't install KDE4 on this production 
machine, but it should work if KDE4 works like its predecessors.
