KMM asks Qt for a list of drivers installed, and displays everything found to 
the user as an option. It should not be a permission issue within the database 
itself, either. Is the libqsqlmysql.so library in the same directory as the 
rest of the libqsqlxxxx.so drivers? Was it built for the same version of MySQL 
and Qt that are installed? Did you run /sbin/ldconfig after you installed the 
Qt driver for MySQL, and before starting KMM?

Other than that, I am not sure what may be going on. These are things I have 
had issues with in the past, though.
