Nokia's flavour of 5.1.1

.csv file downloaded, open file (from androzip but I doubt that's relevant)

first time I get asked to choose between "sheets" and "se text editor", 
I choose the former and press "always"

subsequent times I open the file, it automatically uses "sheets"

the "clear defaults" dialogue never raises itself here, that would seem 
to be your problem, what if you press the back triangle instead of OK?
