SUMMARY
***
Dolphin file manager does not register adjustments to changes made in Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> General -> Sorting mode: Natural vs Alphabetical, case insensitive vs Alphabetical, case sensitive.
Sorting mode remains on Alphabetical, case insensitive mode despite adjustment and reboot.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Fresh install Arch Linux x86_64
2.  Fresh install plasma-meta kde-applications
3.  Observe Alphabetical, case insensitive sorting despite adjustments in Settings -> Configure Dolphin

OBSERVED RESULT
Perseverance of Alphabetical, case insensitive sorting 

EXPECTED RESULT
Natural sorting.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: Arch Linux x86_64 
Host: MS-7C02 1.0 
Kernel: 5.15.60-1-lts 
Plasma 5.25.4
Dolphin 22.04.3


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Other threads have mentioned locale settings can cause issues.
Current locale output below:

LANG=C
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TIME=C
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY=C
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_PAPER="C"
LC_NAME="C"
LC_ADDRESS="C"
LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT=C
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=

Switching to Gnome desktop resolves the issue without adjusting the locale settings.
Nautilus applies natural sorting without issue.

Expected natural sorting is possible using Plasma Konsole by passing ls -v parameter.
