KMimeTypeRepository Errors with kde-open

I have been having an issue with my new install that is driving me crazy.  When I use kde-open I get a string of mimetype errors .

kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.binary.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-excel.addin.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slideshow.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-word.template.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.template.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12" 
kioclient(12367) KMimeTypeRepository::parents: "/usr/share/mime/subclasses"  refers to unknown mimetype  "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slide.macroEnabled.12"

I thought I had fixed the problem when I removed these mimetypes from the /usr/share/mime/subclass file but they keep reappearing.  The problem persists even when I change the default file browser to Gnome Files.  However, if using gvfs-open (with either Dolphin or Gnome Files) the problem goes away, but it does produce another error probably related to the fact that I am not running a Gnome session.  If it helps, I am not running a KDE session either, I am running xmonad.  Also, xdg-open lets even more KDE error noise through, so that is not an option either.

Thanks in advance for any help to either fix the issue entirely or a way to permanently remove those mimetypes.
