[Bug 237777] [NEW] indicated application to open an attachment is ignored

[Charles McCreary]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Upgraded from gutsy gibbon to hardy heron with consequent firefox
upgrade. When I try to open a .wav attachment, I would like it top open
with /usr/bin/play instead of the default. Instead of opening the
application with the desired application, the download manager just
shows that the file has been downloaded. I can only open it with the
original default application, even though I changed the default.

Description:	Ubuntu 8.04
