SUMMARY
***
I love having Places side panel visible all the time on dolphin. When I enable it in Show Panel > Places, the setting reset to hidden after some time
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable Places side panel on dolphin
2. Use dolphin as usual and enjoy the side panel

OBSERVED RESULT
After some time, Places/Folders panel magically disappear and I need to press F9 or F7 to re-enable it. It never take long to see the bug generally just switching between apps, doing normal activities, minimizing dolphin is enough to trigger the bug.

EXPECTED RESULT
It's a regression from previous version of dolphin (23.08.4) where you need explicitly hide it to get rid of it
