Someone has created another bug report Bug 359850 but with a temporary work around.  i'll mark this as duplicate. 
Work around:-
If you go to file associations -> inode -> directory change the order to use dolphin. Then in Default application Dolphin is checked and place in first position. Look like the default application had becomed a viewer of file association.
