You could try writing yourself a script that first starts akonadi, 
waits a couple of seconds and then starts kontact. Something like:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/akonadictl start
sleep 30
kontact

That would give akonadi enough time to start before kontact tries to 
access it. You'd have to exclude kontact from autostarting in session 
management.
