SUMMARY

I have enabled both the option to remember the last session and the option to
remember the “view style” for each folder. Normally, new folders are displayed
ordered by name (A-Z, with folders first). However, for some reason, when I set
this ordering option for the Downloads folder, after closing and reopening
Dolphin, these settings are forgotten, and the items in the Downloads folder
are shown grouped and ordered by modification date. This behaviour occurs only
in the Downloads folder. There is no .directory file inside.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable options "remember the last session" and "remember the “view style”
for each folder".
2. Use icon view
3. In Download folder, order file by name (A-Z, with folders first).
4. Close and open again Dolphin 

OBSERVED RESULT

The files in Download folder are again ordered by modification date and grouped
(As per default of Download folder when enabling remember the “view style” for
each folder)

EXPECTED RESULT

The files should be still ordered by name and not grouped.
