Yeah, I'm also having the same problem here.
I can also confirm that the problem comes from the system not following symbolic links to the apk even within the same filesystem.
However, I'm reluctant to believe that this is a general KitKat problem. Otherwise, we should be seeing many more threads like this one on the Internet, and that doesn't seem to be the case. Moreover, the author claims KitKat compatibility so I guess it has been tested.
Therefore, I guess it has to do with something within our own systems, although I have no idea what could it be. Does anybody know how does the apk loading process works? Maybe we can find some hint there.
I have one more question, though. Normally, when Link2sd does work, after you move an app to the sd card and you try to launch it afterwards without any reboot, does it open? Now, for me, it doesn't. That's also the case when I move the apk somewhere else (within the same file system) and link it back to the original location. I wonder if that's a symptom of the same underlying cause (not following the symlinks).
