I found a solution to the problem that is even simpler. My jde-jdk-registry had 3 entries and the first one was blank. I simply removed the blank entry and made sure the jdk I wanted to use as a default was the first in the list. I never even have to set jde-jdk; the first entry in the registry automatically gets used.
