--- Comment #1 from Felix Ernst <felixernst at kde.org> ---
Items that have keyboard focus are supposed to be more visibly highlighted than
items that don't have keyboard focus. So the list in the side bar will have a
more dimmed highlight effect after being clicked once because the keyboard
focus goes to Dolphin's main view then (which in turn gets an accent-coloured
frame to signify that it has keyboard focus). When the same list item in the
side bar is clicked again after that, it gains the keyboard focus and therefore
becomes more bright (i.e. non-dimmed accent-coloured).

You can test it yourself: Whenever the highlight in the sidebar is brighter,
using the up and down arrows will move the highlight within that sidebar
instead of in Dolphin's main view. When Dolphin's main view has keyboard focus
you will see a bright outline around the view.

I know that not all areas of Dolphin clearly highlight themselves when they
have keyboard focus, but at least the behaviour you are reporting here seems
correct to me.
