I am also having this issue after performing all available Stretch updates on 27 Oct 2015 and I figured I would chime in with my observations in the event that it might be helpful. Looking through the Xorg.0.log file I see that the
/run/dbus directory was completely missing. I verified this looking through the file system. I reinstalled Stretch using the Alpha 4 netinst amd64 CD. My desktop environment was KDE Plasma 5, and I chose that as the DE on reinstall as well. I got the same
issue. If I change the display manager from sddm to kdm the /run/dbus directory (and the socket contained within) were created. I monkeyed around and got KDE4 to come up, but there were other problems (probably because I was messing around a lot). The issue
appears to be specific to sddm and KDE Plasma 5.
