Follow through by doing a test, where you make a script that sets those
SUDO variables before invoking your app. Then tell kdesu to invoke the
script instead of your app; that way the variables will be set before your
app starts running. See if it makes a difference.

An example script to do this might look like:

---- snip
#!/bin/csh -f
setenv KDE_FULL_SESSION true
setenv HOME             /home/testing
setenv _                /usr/bin/sudo
setenv SUDO_COMMAND     $0
/path/to/test_app $*:q
---- snip
