I made a picture, but I see you already committed a fix, well here's the 
picture anyway:

Rebuild went fine. More devices show up, some devices disappear after 
switching backends (don't remember which ones). In the end only my three HDA 
Realtek ALC888 devices remain and one device named "default"
The device named "default" has a tendency to dis- and reappear. All devices 
work when "Test"ed. I cannot tell a difference between backends. Moving 
GStreamer to the top keeps producing crashes (when clicking apply).

Now and again I'll get a notification that "The playbackdevice HDA Realtek 
ALC888 PCM #0 Analog (pcm) is not functioning. Falling back to default"
Note that I can succesfully "Test" that device in systemsettings immediately 
after with no problem. PCM #0 is at the top of the list, default at the 
bottom.

You're right.
Looking back in  the script-output, when kalzium failed for the first time, 
portmaster reported:
===>>> make failed for science/kalzium
===>>> Aborting update
===>>> Update for science/kalzium failed
===>>> Aborting update
===>>> Update for misc/kdeedu4 failed
===>>> Aborting update
===>>> Update for x11/kde4 failed
===>>> Aborting update

Of course it also reported how I should restart, but I ignored that and simply 
used portmaster -a, that's probably why/where it went wrong.

I also had a text-line ("new activity") to the right of the icon, which made 
it quite prominent. Moving it does help, I'd prefer that over the plasma-
applet that seems a bit buggy and has an unprofessional name.

You're welcome!
