Bug Description

Selecting the "BlueDevil Send File" through the Application Menu or the "Applications" place in pcmanfm-qt gives no result: no window or dialogue opens.
A device has already been paired using BlueDevil Wizard.
Running the command found in the desktop file ("bluedevil-sendfile -k %u") in a terminal *does* open the "Bluetooth Send File Wizard" window with the following terminal output:

lubuntu@lubuntu:~$ bluedevil-sendfile -k %u
Icon theme "elementary" not found.
bluedevil.sendfile: Device "%u"
bluedevil.sendfile: Files ()
bluedevil.sendfile: Manager initialized

Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot Lubuntu 21.10 in a live session
2. Click on the Application Menu
3. Select "Internet > BlueDevil Wizard"
4. Pair a device
5. Open the Application Menu
6. Select "Internet > BlueDevil Send File"

Result:
Nothing happens

Expected result:
Bluetooth Send File Wizard opens

I did some testing here.

kioclient5 exec /usr/share/applications/org.kde.bluedevilsendfile.desktop
kioclient(23348)/(kf.service.services) \[31munknown\[0m: KApplicationTrader: mimeType "x-scheme-handler/file" not found
scarlett@scarlett-work:~$ bluedevilsendfile: Missing value after '-k'.

I copied the file into my home directory and edited it to remove the -k %u

and kioclient5 exec org.kde.bluedevilsendfile.desktop

brings up the UI as expected.

Scarlett, since it sounds like the issue is the arguments passed in the desktop file for bluedevil, is there some reason you've triaged this in Plasma and not bluedevil???
