There is the `org-store-link-plist' variable used by :store functions 
from `org-link-parameters' but not by the 
`org-create-file-search-functions' hook. Maybe it is enough to add

    (setq desc (plist-get org-store-link-plist :description))

after calling of the hook.

For a while, I hope, it is possible to create a workaround using

   (org-link-set-parameters
    "file"
    :store ...)
