Simply removing ck-launch-session allows TDE to launch. In the interim until new
arch tdebase packages are built. Simply do the following:

  switch to VT1 (ctrl+alt+F1)

  AS ROOT - remove reference to ck-launch-session

  sed -i 's/ck-launch-session\ //' /opt/trinity/share/config/tdm/Xsession

  switch back to the greeter (ctrl+alt+F7)

  login

Now I hope TDE can keep track of user-sessions without consolekit....
