Description Aleix Pol 2020-04-13 19:01:11 UTC 
SUMMARY
For some reason, Telegram insists on open urls with Falkon when I have chromium set up as my default browser right now.
All applications open chromium properly except for Telegram which decided eventually to use Falkon.

EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect to either be able to easily have this be fixed or even be a non-problem since it should be Plasma deciding which application to launch rather than the portals infrastructure.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: master all on host, using org.kde.Sdk//5.14

Yeah, I see the same thing.
Comment 2 Jan Grulich 2020-04-19 16:50:08 UTC 
I opened an upstream bug https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/472. If anyone wants to step in, feel free to.

I have not been seeing this issue for a while now, is it still a problem?
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2022-01-21 05:00:15 UTC 
Indeed, seems to be fixed for me.
Comment 6 Oleg 2022-01-21 07:17:46 UTC 
I have similar issue. Telegram keeps asking which program to use to open PDF files. It's very annoying b/c Okular is hidden under "Show More" and there seems to be no way to make default associations
Comment 7 Aleix Pol 2022-01-21 10:16:35 UTC 
@Oleg can you open a new bug report for that?
