I'm running 99.99% stable here so takes that for what it is. Here, with Firefox open I run in konsole eix ardour and then right click on the ardour.org link and choose Open Link. I get the Ardour web site in the running version of Firefox. With Firefox not running KDE/konsole still opens Firefox. - Mark
