Yes, ssh-add always ignores SSH_AHSPASS and reads passphrase from stdin if
stdin is a tty.

Currently I run ksshaskpass automatically right after login into KDE, and it
prompts a dialog for opening kwallet. Here is an simple script
~/.kde4/Autostart/ksshaskpass

#!/bin/sh

if which ksshaskpass &> /dev/null ; then
    #SSH_ASKPASS=$(which ksshaskpass) ssh-add < /dev/null
fi

This is not as ideal as the on-demand way in gnome. But it is better than none.

Anyway, such integration is out of the scope of konsole and should be provided
by other component of KDE,  as in gnome. Just my 2 cents.
