Screenshot of `Default Applications`

SUMMARY

Hello!
I wanted to switch over the default terminal `konsole` to `tilix` which is a terminal emulator based on GTK3. But when I went to change the default terminal in the system settings, nothing changed. 
That is, Ctrl+Alt+T still opened up Konsole, when it should have really opened Tilix instead.

My platform is Kubuntu 20.04, a fresh install.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download tilix, sudo apt install tilix 
2. Search for `Default Applications - System Settings Module` 
3. Go to the terminal tab on the left
4. Change from `Use Konsole as terminal application` to `Use a different terminal program:`, and find Tilix among the software that you want to set the default terminal emulator as. See attachment for what I see
5. Press `Ctrl+Alt+T`. Expected result should be that tilix opens, not `Konsole` again

OBSERVED RESULT

Konsole invalidly opens, instead of Tilix, which should be the expected result, no?

Shortcuts config

Currently Konsole is explicitly used for the shortcut. Also dolphin has the same issue in the "Open Terminal here" context menu.

Please raise this as a separate issue if it still occurs for you.

Ctrl Alt T isn't a shortcut to open the default terminal emulator, it's to open Konsole. You can fix this by just adding Tilix to the Keyboard Shortcuts configuration and setting Ctrl Alt T to it (it will ask you if you want to reassign).

Nope! Fixed it. I forgot about this. Please close the issue - I'm not sure how to.
