Interresting. Just tried your command and it doesn't let me in with the 
password I entered when prompted by the Koha installer.

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'kohaadmin'@'localhost' 
(using password: YES)

If I just click enter when prompted for the password (so empty password) 
then it lets me in fine. Does this mean that the Koha installer doesn't 
pass on the kohaadmin password to mysqld correctly? or is it something 
to do with my mysql configuration?
