Everytime I update packages on my system, KDE resets some mime types

Hello!

Everytime I use pacman, KDE forgets some of my file preferences.
For example I've set *.mp4 video as "open with VLC". After each update (unrelated to KDE) the preference is set to Gnome Video.

To correct I have to go to systemsettings and applications and set the preferences multiple (!) times to make it work as expected again.

I could not find any solution in the Arch Wiki - the mime type info seems out of date.
So last thing I tried: I deleted /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache - no effect.

This is on a fully updated ARch install (including KDE plasma desktop and Gnome).
(Btw: Gnome does not seem to have the same problem...)

thx for help,
p.
