Another thing I just discovered. The bluetooth related services are not 
started when your package runit-services is installed.

I now removed the package.

I think it is important to verify that all services that a desktop 
environment like Plasma needs are properly started when the package is 
installed. I bet it has something to do with some DBUS activated 
services not working. No idea why tough.

I can look into reporting bugs for the issues I found during next week.
