In particular, among the debugging output (you *may* need to recompile KPilot 
with CFLAGS="-DDEBUG -DDEBUG_CERR" to get debugging output at all, depending 
again on your kdelibs install), look for a line like

reloadSettings: Resetting with device /dev/cuaa0 and type Serial

which ought to reflect what you set in the config dialog.

Next, if you're feeling lucky or C++y, look in lib/kpilotlink.cc and change

	if (isTransient())
	{
		if (!QFile::exists(fPilotPath))
		{
			return;
		}
	}

(lines 156-163) to

	if (isTransient())
	{
		if (!QFile::exists(fPilotPath))
		{
			if (QFile::exists(fPilotPath))
			{
				kdWarning() << k_kuncinfo
					<< ": QFile::exists seems to create device node."
					<< endl;
			}
			return;
		}
	}

See the extra ::exists() test? You never know ...
