same problem but just with office files .doc .xls .odt and so on. It
seems that firefox-3.5 apparmor profile just allow call to oowriter,
oocalc and so on by default while openoffice.org packages associate
theese document mime types with soffice call.

I got this audit log when the problem occur :

type=APPARMOR_DENIED msg=audit(1256233153.219:51): operation="exec"
pid=8050 parent=20285 profile="/usr/lib/firefox-3.5.*/firefox"
requested_mask="::x" denied_mask="::x" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
name="/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice"

Juste added this line to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.firefox-3.5 : 
  /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice Uxr,

restarted apparmor and the problem was gone

Maybe a patch to openoffice.org-xxx package for mime association is a
better solution
