I think the backends.local.php is configured correctly since everything 
is working fine using the Horde frontend (I can create and remove 
address books in Turba and add new contacts).

In Turba frontend I see also the address books created with the API, but 
when I select one of these, I am redirected to the default address book.

Maybe this info is useful:
With the contacts API I get all the address books created in Horde 
fronted by calling contacts/sources, but I do not receive the ones 
created with contacts/addAddressbook.
However, with contact/listShares i really get all address books (even 
the ones created by the API call).
