STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have some sub-folders in your Dropbox folder. Also be sure to enable the Dropbox Dolphin plugin.
2. Visit these subfolders and add them to your 'Places' in Dolphin.
3. Close Dolphin
4. Open Dolphin and click one of the new Places items for your Dropbox subfolders
5. Observe
6. Open the root of your Dropbox folder
7. Open a subfolder
8. Observe

OBSERVED RESULT

The Dropbox status icons do not show when you launch Dolphin and visit the folder directly. You have to first navigate to the root Dropbox folder to activate the plugin, then you can visit the sub directories and see the proper file status icons.


EXPECTED RESULT

Whenever you visit any path within your Dropbox folder it should activate the plugin.
