    I believe the indicators in the recorded test case are not indicators of what browser is used for execution.  TestComplete sets an internal value that, when you use the "Run Browser" operation, uses whatever browser was executed at that point for the playback.

     

    Note: Be sure that, when you playback, you don't have any other browsers open as it might confuse some things.  But generally, you shouldn't worry about the indicator to know what browser will be played back.
