Further information - the following is generally what I always see:

1) Double-click on desktop shortcut, Calc opens with empty spreadsheet
2) Trying to open the file using the shortcut filename, i.e. /home/username/Desktop/filename.ods from the Recent Documents list will not open the file
3) Trying to then open the file using its full name, i.e. /home/username/Documents/filename.ods from the Recent Documents list will open file in a new program window but I also see that in the first program window it is not possible to close the empty spreadsheet using the "x" in the top-right corner as the "x" isn't now displayed.

But if I omit step 2 file opens in the existing Calc window as it should
when using the Recent Documents list

Further information to follow as I find it.

Title:
  [Upstream] Double clicking on .ods file opens Calc but does not load
  file

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Double clicking on a (desktop) .ods file icon opens Calc but does not
  load the .ods file it just opens Calc.

  I've experienced this with LO 3.42 and now LO 3.43 which was released
  today. Using KDE 4.71, fully updated.

  Various web searches have found a forum post that suggested deleting
  the .libreoffice directory. That didn't solve the problem here.

  By the way, opening .odt files this way opens Writer and the .odt file
  correctly.
