I've not had this problem in korganizer, but I have seen it with other kontact 
modules.  I find that the best thing is to killall kontact and wait a few 
seconds, after which everything works again.  I assume that something that 
should have shut down is still open, and this seems to find it.

Alternatively, it usually works if you open system monitor (Ctrl-Esc) and put 
korganizer into the search bar.  You'll probably find a slave hanging around, 
and if you can kill it there that should clear things.
