Do you use any gnome programs?
After starting gnome-control-center, gnome-settings-daemon is running
in the background and all kde fonts will be rendered much bigger.
Check it out with "ps ax | grep gnome".

Maybe it would help if you check out /usr/kde/3.2/bin/startkde and
add a "sleep 2" after the environment initialization and before kde
starts.

These are the only hints I have. :)
