ffmpegthumbs 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu1 puts ffmpegthumbs.so under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/ (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/ffmpegthumbs/filelist).
Dolphin looks for plugins under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/dolphin/filelist).
This can be reproduced with the Kubuntu 16.04 LTS live image.
There is a workaround until the package is fixed. This command will link all the files from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/ to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/* /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/
