Thank you for taking the time to report this bug.
Confirmed when open a OpenOffice file, that is a smb share, from Places->"Recent Documents". A mouse over show: "smb://machine/share/file.odt", but it open with fileroller.

I'm associated this bug with gnome-panel package.

This appears to be a case of gnome-panel not giving the app the gvfs-fuse path for the file.

Note that OpenOffice.org uses %F so it won't get passed a URI so should be getting passed a gvfs-fuse path instead.
