As I'm running this on NVidia hardware, I've also added
Section "Device"
[...your device settings...]
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
EndSection
Further, I've found two bugs reports upstream that match my problems:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100020
-> Has been closed because its the X server that needs fixing.
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100177
-> Valid. Please vote to get your systray icons back! :)
