Strange problem of Krunner and search with texdoctk

I have a manually installed texlive so that I can have access to all the documentations locally and I normally use kde.

But recently, every time I run texdoctk (instead of texdoc) in kde, I could of course browser documentations without any problem, but after I select some item to view in the file search result window of texdoctk, I always get an error like

kf5.kio.widgets: KRun(0x7e7c30) ERROR 111 "The file or folder smb://usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/doc/latex/amsmath/amsmath.pdf does not exist."
Error loading text-to-speech plug-in "flite"

Of course I can workaround this problem by simply using texdoc. But I noticed such problem does not exist in gnome or some other desktop environment. I can't figure out how the "smb:/" prefix appear in the above error under KDE, maybe a bug in Krunner ?

I believe that the above problem is quit reproducible since two of my laptops and my desktop all show the same problem. Any ideas what happened exactly ?
