Late to the party, I've run into the same problem.
The closest I've got to resolving the problem is pushing a GPO that says "do not set default client printer to be default in a session"
We also joined that with another GPO that essentially forces the computer to always let Windows manage their printer.
It's worked fairly well, I'd say about 6070% success rate. Some users it still fails to retain their preferred printers.
