Hello,

I can also reproduce this bug.
I'll try to see what I can do.

I can reproduce with certain ISOs stored in an EXT4 partition that I only use to store personal data.
I'm unable to reproduce if the same ISOs are located in my Home also formatted with EXT4 file system.

In the home directory, any mounted ISO is immediately displayed in Dolphin. 
If I mount an ISO from an external hard drive or USB stick, it will not show up until I quit and restart Dolphin.

This bug is still present on Dolphin 24.02.0 as of KDE 6.0.2.
I can mount some ISOs from the context menu and they will show up in Dolphin right away, but others don't work.

What's more (different bug), if the ISO label contains spaces or special characters (like "Tim's Favorite Documents" :-) ), the ISO will shows up as a disk but a click on it won't mount it, it'll show an error message.

And also, if I unmount them using Dolphin, they will stay in the sidebar as unmounted loop devices. Removing the actual loop device does not seem possible using Dolphin yet (I use "gdisks" to do this).
