Your question may, or may not, have a simple answer.  It all depends on what 
you mean
by "default browser" and the desktop you're using as well as the applications 
calling
the browser.

Anyway, I use KDE as my DE and Chrome as my browser.  I also use T-Bird for my 
mail
client where most of the links are that I want to open.

So, the following works for me....

xdg-settings set default-web-browser google-chrome.desktop
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler http google-chrome.desktop 
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler https google-chrome.desktop

You would replace the google-chrome.desktop with the appropriate desktop file 
for
your preferred browser.  The desktop file would be located in...

/usr/share/applications/
