If the data engine tries to start the service automatically via D-Bus
activation, I get this back from D-Bus:

---snip---
Launch helper exited with unknown return code 254
---snip---

If I start the service manually and then start the widget and data
engine, I get this instead:

---snip---
Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call",
sender=":1.25" (uid=1000 pid=1664 comm="kdeinit4: plasma-desktop
[kdeinit]") interface="org.socketsentry.Watcher" member="findDevices"
error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0
destination="org.socketsentry.Watcher" (uid=0 pid=1872
comm="socksent-service))"
---snip---

In the second case (at least), it looks like D-Bus doesn't think the
plasma-desktop process is authorized to access the service.
