Yes you both correct, Epiphany marked itself as default browser when irc and gwibber used it I changed it back but was still looking at the links when I reported the bug so must of assumed it was opened post change back. So the only app it appears to be at fault then is ubuntu-bug/apport that is still using Epiphany by default then.
Please feel free to close this bug I will create a new one against ubuntu-bug/apport.
