In my case, this was not successful.

As shown in this question, Firefox is already the default in
update-alternatives, but the alternative that it consistently chooses
is *not* the default. This makes me think that the alternatives system
is perhaps poorly designed.

Changing the default in org-file-apps to "firefox %s" for HTML -- that
definitely works, by bypassing sensible-browser altogether. Thanks,
Bastien, for the tip.
