"Set as default" has no effect and instantly reverts back to application set in Default Applications

Ask Fedora

Hello everybody,

I’ve just upgraded two systems to Fedora 32. Playing around with them I found the following bug on both systems:

  • Set different players for Video and Music in your “Default applications” Gnome settings.
  • Try to set an invidual default for an Audio file which contains an embedded cover. In my example an ogg - which gets the mime-type: video/ogg
  • Trying to set the individual default instantly snaps back to the “Default application” choosen in Gnome settings.

This problem might be older and unreletated to the upgrade.

I’ve created a screencapture and filed an issue with Nautilus just now: "Set as default" has no effect and reverts back to application set in Default Applications (#1455) · Issues · GNOME / Files · GitLab

Can someone reproduce this issue?
