For some reason, the font size seems to be adjusted if they are supposed to 
be 72dpi while X runs at 75dpi, and a KDE application tries to use it.

This results in 
-misc-console-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-iso10646-1 being 
available to non-KDE-applications and 
-misc-console-medium-r-normal--15-160-75-75-c-160-iso10646-1 being 
available for KDE-apllications. (16 * 75/72 == 15)

If you can't change the dpi settings, you can patch konsole:

sed 
-e's/-misc-console-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-iso10646-1/-misc-console-medium-r-normal--15-160-75-75-c-160-iso10646-1/'<`which 
konsole` > ~/bin/konsole
chmod u+x ~/bin/konsole

(~/bin must be in your path before the KDE directory)
