If you always want it :intra_guest then why have you got the logic in set_default_role why not just set it to that? You say that you want to set it once at application start, remember that the application will server multiple users one after the other without restarting, so all users would get the same value. If you are trying to do it based on which url a user goes to *first* then save the value in the session for later use by that user.
