Note the emptiness of the folder. The proper contents show when another location is clicked and Home clicked again.

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

Calling dolphin to open to the Home folder fails (Quick access widget, from within a browser's “open folder”, Open With Dolphin in folder view widget, and any other operations that call dolphin to open with the Home folder). See screenshot for behavior and settings. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click QuickAccess widget - 
2. Click '/home/username' at the top to open the home folder with dolphin (or in a folder view widget, open the home folder with dolphin). 
3. The home folder will be blank. 

Actual Results:  
The folder appears empty in dolphin. 

Expected Results:  
The contents of the user's home folder should display, obviously. 

When another Location is clicked and Home clicked again, the proper contents show. 

The "Home" location is set to /home/user (the username) as it should.
