KUniqueApplication and premature dbus calls

[Michael Jansen]

HI

I swear it's the last question / problem for today.

KUniqueApplication doesn't like it when you make a dbus call before calling 
KUniqueApplication::start(): 

I get 

QDBusConnectionPrivate::connectSignal: received error from D-Bus server while 
connecting signal to OxygenStyle::globalSettingsChange(int,int): 
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply (Did not receive a reply. Possible causes 
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security 
policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection 
was broken.)
ASSERT: "false" in file /home/kde4dev/build/qt-x11-4.4-
snapshot/src/src/dbus/qdbusintegrator.cpp, line 1840

The problem is this call

 QDBusConnection bus = QDBusConnection::sessionBus();
 QDBusInterface iface(
            "org.kde.khotkeys",
            "/",
            QString(),
            bus );

Put it into any kuniqueapplication before the KUniqueApplication::start() call 
and you get the problem.

Should that be documented? I found some similar problem reports googling but 
never a explanation or how to fix it.

Mike
