Thanks! That was it, but...
that implies there was an uncaught dependency during the
daily rawhide upgrade process...

So I assume at some point this 'kde-settings-pulseaudio'
was created and added, but, and I'm speculating now...
it was not a dependency of anything that was updated
since then. I.e. Why wasn't it auto-sucked in?
It's not a hard dependency (you have the option of running without
pulseaudio). but added to comps' kde-desktop group.
You'd get that, plus any new default stuff via:
yum groupinstall kde-desktop
