I would have put seamonkey at the head of the list, myself. Could be wrong, though.
You weren't! <GRIN>As I replied to davidson, "Having just done a web search for "x-www-browser" I should have searched for the first unknown in what was obviously a prioritized list."
Now, I believe davidson suggested modifying your system-wide default browser to reflect your seamonkey shenanigans.
Using his directions and with man page open it not only worked but I learned details of what I was doing.
update-alternatives --config x-www-browser I guess is the way to do that correctly. https://wiki.debian.org/HOWTO/DefaultWebBrowser
