Mounts showing then not

SUMMARY
I have 4 mounts to a remote filesystem (NAS on the same subnet) that I have
configured Systemd to mount at bootup.  They mount as they should and are
available via command line.  However they do not display in the Places panel in
Dolphin, when Dolphin is first opened.  If I navigate to /mnt they will then
show up under "Remote" in Places, however the links will disappear anywhere
from 3 - 8 seconds afterwards.  Further clicking into the directories will
bring back the one I clicked on, but again it will disappear in short order. 
This is visually distracting to see the remote panel constantly updating but
more importantly when you want to access those shares quickly, you can't unless
you navigate to /mnt first and at that point, you may as well just drill in
manually rather than use the link in Places.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Mount a filesystem via systemd (.mount or .automount, makes no difference)
2.  Open Dolphin, the mount will not show under Remote in Places
3. Navigate to /mnt (or wherever your mount point actually is)

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin will then show the fileshare, but it will disappear very quickly
although the mount itself is still 100% available, verified by command
line/df/mount etc

EXPECTED RESULT
Mounted shares show up in Remote/Places and stay there while filesystem is
mounted.

This issue does -not- occur when using straight /etc/fstab to mount the
fileshares.  Only when happening via systemd.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0 
Qt Version: 6.7.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I've added two screenshots, taken 10 seconds apart, where you can see the
mounts showing in the panel then how they've disappeared (I realize it's not
the best demo of the issue, but it happens quick and is hard to capture
accurately).

Works fine with /etc/fstab.  Navigating the mounts manually in Dolphin also
works fine.  It's just the links that show up under Remote are not present as
they should be and do not stay, when you are able to get them to show up.

Kernel - 6.11.8
Wayland, if that matters
