SUMMARY
I have a Samba server that I connect to remotely via wireguard. If I connect via wireguard and do not open the network drive (it is unmounted, but I get same issue mounted) I can open/close dolphin with no issues. But if I open the network directory and perform some action (while saving a file for example), and then turn off wireguard once it completes - dolphin becomes slow to open/respond until i reboot pc. This is an issue only when i am away from home and don't have my samba share on the same network. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  turn on wireguard vpn
2. open non-mounted samba network share in dolphin
3. perform an action
4. close wireguard

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin becomes slow and unresponsive

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin is fast as usual

Also, I forgot to add (and don't know how to edit) - when i turn wireguard VPN back on dolphin opens as fast as usual. Turning off vpn, causes it to open slow and become unresponsive again.

Again, the network drive IS NOT mounted via fstab. But I get the same issue even if i mount via fstab and turn off wireguard
