ok i've tracked it down, i have something called 'plugger' installed, with this xmms launches on the urls wihtout i get a 'choose application' dialogue, it seems that kde file associations don't apply to web browsing, there is an /etc/pluggerrc file that has a refernce to x-mpegurl and similar and names xmms, replacing the xmms entry with gmplayer results in that app playing the link - hooray! but instead of gmplayer launching and playing the link while the original web page with the link remains in view the browser changes as if to load a new page but then stays gray and blank, perhaps there is a syntax to the /etc/pluggerrc file that someone can help me out with?
