I just installed 11.04.
Tried to play a music folder by right clicking, and clicked 'other application'
selected VLC, OK, no problem. Did not notice at the time that the tickbox at 
the bottom was defaulted to 'remember this application'.

Thereafter,  when opening homefolder, desktop, documents, or any other folder, 
VLC opened instead.
Deinstalled VLC and Rhythmbox opened in its place.

After several minutes thinking, I right-clicked a file at random (in a mounted 
external drive on desktop, apparently unaffected), clicked 'open with', making 
sure 'remember this application' wasw selected, and chose file manager.  
Problem solved.
Reinstalled VLC, problem has not returned.

Sorted, but way too buggy.
