This bug affects me too. I have three services declared in /etc/avahi/services/ in three computers on my local network and I get only the ssh services through the konqueror/dolphin zeroconf:/ kioslave.

Here is the output of mdns-scan:

sim@bala:~$ mdns-scan

Browsing ... \

When I enter plain zeroconf:/ into the browser, I get a folder
"Nutolęs diskas (fish)" (which means "Remote disk (fish)"

when I open it, I see a list of three entries "remote terminal on Hostname" - weird, I expected remote disks here !

and the browser address bar changes to:
zeroconf:/_ssh._tcp

But when I click on one of tose icons, I can get connected to a remote server through the fish protocol. So the zeroconf does not display most of the service types, and in part reports wrongly those it does detect.

I am using kde 4.1.3 on Kubuntu Intrepid.

There is a thread about this problem on forums.kde.org:
