With moused already running (for my ps/2 mouse), plugging in an extra USB 
mouse works perfectly, and either one works, both in syscons and in X. 
Killall moused disables it, of course, and then re-plugging the USB mouse 
restores mouse functionality in both X and syscons. So that must be something 
specific to your system.

Well said. Except ..

So send an actual bug report, either to the amd64 list or to kde at freebsd, with 
detailed information. If the port fails to build, show us the logs. 

FWIW,

beans.ebn.kun.nl$ps ax | grep arts
  654  ??  S      0:11.97 /usr/local/kde-HEAD/bin/artsd -F 10 -S 4096 -s 60 -m

(not that sound works, mind you, there's other problems with that - I can't 
get _anything_ to produce pcm sound, ogg123 bus errors, and mpg123 refuses to 
play anything but to esd output)
