Hmmm, this may be a bug. I'm not sure what happened to that setting, I have to 
investigate.

You can run "kcmshell4 filetypes" to set file associations. (Yes, this sucks. 
Setting file associations from within Dolphin is a requested feature, it would 
also be useful within KDE 4, I'm not sure why this isn't set up. :-( ) By the 
way, technically, it's actually KDE 3 using "its own file-type associations", 
KDE 4 is using the shared-mime-info which is also used by GNOME and some other 
stuff.
