[Bug 877486] [NEW] Unity - Gnome control center doesn't allow to change default apps

 

Public bug reported:

Tried to change my default audio player from banshee to VLC, via gnome-
control-center, with no success: system player seems changed but it
isn't so. Tried to do the same with "open with" trick and succeeded, but
my player opens a new instance for every audiofile I play.
