Thank you for shedding some light.

Two things.
Why can't dolphin write to metadata ? Has the folder a lot of metadata already
? (There is size limit for xattr)
Dolphin may output some errors in the console if launch from there.

Secondly should this fail dolphin would store the view properties in
~/.local/share as fallback and this seems to not work.

So that's a different than the one originally reported here.
