Normal cite uses global delim definition with comma:\\\\

Reset of global delimiter with traditional method:\\\\

Reset the \cmd{space} command for this bibliography to use the
context-sensitive interface. First we use the default "bib" context:
\AtNextBibliography{\renewcommand*{\space}{\printdelim{space}}}
\printbibliography

Now use a custom context "test" and \cmd{space} expands to something
different. Also, "nametitledelim" is back to default because we override
the default "bib" context:
\AtNextBibliography{\renewcommand*{\space}{\printdelim{space}}\delimcontext{test}}
\printbibliography
