Steps to reproduce:

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04

2) apt-cache policy firefox
firefox:
  Installed: 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
  Candidate: 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1

3) What is expected to happen is when then preference in Firefox is set

4) What happens instead is it doesn't for the following specific URL:
http://marcus.granado.googlepages.com/benny2008-Lodamin-NEWS.pdf

Firefox asks if I want to download it and open it with ghex.

However, the preference is honored if one goes to:
