Previously in the thread someone posted a patch to roll-back this change.
I did not apply that myself, it could be that that roll-back-patch is

Do you still have that patch applied on your system?
Also, changing the tick-box worked immediately on my system. Changing the
config-file directly might require ALL dolphin instances from being killed.
