I found a workaround, at least for my specific machine.

It seems like on this machine, when I set up my konsole keyboard shortcut, I
just assigned a key-combo to the shortcut under Session->Shortcuts->Custom
Shortcuts->KMenuEdit->Konsole->Trigger.  This shortcut I think is created by
default.

On other machines, I made a new custom group, then added a newly created
shortcut by clicking edit->new->global shortcut->command/url and filling it in.

What I notice is that if you go into /proc/`pidof ksmserver/fd and inspect the
open files, starting console with the first shortcut does not seem to notify
ksmserver of its presence, but using the "from scratch" shortcut seems to make
a new socket to ksmserver for each konsole.  I guess if konsole doesn't tell
ksmserver about itself it cannot be queried for session management at logout.

Not sure of the how or why, but it seems to fix/work around the issue here.  I
am also sure this used to work, and I only set the short cut up when I bought
the laptop nearly three years ago.  Hope it helps someone else get un-stuck.
