This is at least case with Kate master (KF5 based). I am not 100% sure whether bug is really in klauncher, or kdbusaddons, or kate. Though the issue could be due to kate registering not org.kde.kate, but org.kde.kate-$PID. It can be reproduced by opening 2nd document in kate, either via dolphin, or konsole, etc. Symptoms are the same as in bug 75492.
Any progress on this? Or ways to fix? I can open a second document from dolphin (all frameworks 5/plasma 5 based), but need to close that second document in Kate, to get this message: KDEInit could not launch '/usr/bin/kate' After closing that message, dolphin becomes active again.

Comment by Antonio Rojas (arojas) - Saturday, 24 January 2015, 19:33 GMT+1 Removing X-DBUS-StartupType=Multi from the .desktop file fixes this for me. Can this be implemented as a workaround while this is fixed upstream? This is a really bad bug IMO, it makes kate useless for any advanced use. Comment by Tomasz (FadeMind) - Saturday, 24 January 2015, 19:49 GMT+1 — Edit One more issue: looping loading animation on kate icon after open several files. This feature can be disabe by adding value: StartupNotify=false in to the file /usr/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop I confirm: Disabling/removing X-DBUS-StartupType=Multi line in org.kde.kate.desktop file fixed issue kdeinit could not launch '/usr/bin/kate' Comment by Andrea Scarpino (BaSh) - Saturday, 24 January 2015, 19:51 GMT+1 Great. Please report those informations in the upstream bug report. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/43513
Probably a duplicate of 343673
I think this bug can be closed. During last year problem never occurred for me. Probably it was fixed in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343673
