On my system I do have the key.

Is peter said, if you are using kdm, then this should be handled for you.
If not try the following in your .xinitrc:

exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startkde

As for my user groups:
video,audio,optical,storage,games,lp,wheel,scanner,power

As for kde packages, I have a very minimal kde install and it still works.
kdebase is must of course. Try it with just that and the above settings. If
it doesn't work, then take a look at `pacman -Sg kdeadmin`
