Hello, it seems that if you call dolphin to open a directory and the directory is listed in your Places/Devices - it ignores it and selected the first option from the list. Please see the picture in the URL field for the example. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert a pendrive. 2. Using the device manager, click to open the folder. 3. It opens the folder with dolphin, but instead Devices->pendrive to be selected you get Devices->Home Expected Results: Dolphin should always select the directory from favorites when such folder is accessed. The expected behaviour described here is how dolphin has worked since now. Is this a change conciously made? Regards.
Well, I guess my observation matches this... Since KDE SC 4.9 the places sidebar doesn't change the selected place anymore when I switch to a folder in another range. E.g. when I choose the root folder via the places panel, this "place" is highlighted in the panel. Then I open ~/something via addressbar- and the places panel stays at the root folder. Expected behaviour is that it now should highlight the home folder, as it was in dolphin of KDE SC 4.8 and before.

Thanks for the bug report, I can confirm this issue.

Hello, I can confirm that the patch provided by emmanuel099 fixes this bug for me. Thanks. PD: I'm not sure if I should mark this bug as RESOLVED myself or let a KDE dev do it after a revision?
The patch is not reviewed and merged yet, so there is no reason to close this report now.
