yeah seriously, WTF? It's plain freaking stupid that the default association fires an app which does nothing with it?
Here is a workaround (works on 15.04): - install vlc - on opening choose other and select /usr/bin/vlc - save it as default - enjoy direct playback when clicking on a link like http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=2157097 Ubuntu, please remove the association, add pls association to vlc and install that as a default.
