Logging off and on should suffice to produce this problem.

Slightly OT, but in the session management module in systemsettings, 
there is an option to exclude specific programs from being started 
automatically. You might want to add kdesu. I also put acroread 
there.
As a workaround, you can autostart "kdesu kppp".

I agree that his field should be pre-filled with some programs KDE 
session management can't handle.
