Since I got akonadi/nepomuk working I've never had akonadi refuse to start, so 
no.  I have been told, and it may be relevant, that akonadi flushes its cache 
when it's stopped.  I'm unsure as to whether akonadi actually stops when 
kontact stops using it.  I'm just wondering whether a crash of kontact on the 
way out is stopping the flush happening.

Qualifying that first statement, after a kontact crash, bits get left behind 
and kontact will not then restart - and this may affect akonadi.  I use System 
Activity monitor to find the kontact parts - and there can be quite a lot of 
them, and kill them.  After that everything is fine.

Have you tried stopping, then re-starting nepomuk without removing the 
database?  You should not need to.
