SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Mount a network drive (SFTP would do) 2. Click on a media file on the network drive in Dolphin 3. VLC opens up an sftp dialog OBSERVED RESULT VLC opens a sftp dialog EXPECTED RESULT VLC accesses the file directly through the kio-fuse path SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have noticed that this happens only sometimes, e.g. mounting my Macbook works as expected, but not using Openssh on Termux.
This may be because trying to access the folder `sftp/android.ssh:8022` fails.
Can you clarify *exactly* what you're doing when you say that you "Mount a network drive"? Also can you attach a screenshot of VLC's "sftp dialog"?

I just gave up and went with sshfs. Closing.
well, that's not really how this works. A bug is a bug, whether or not you're experiencing it. Is the SFTP share password-protected, or passwordless? If it's passwordless, then this is a known issue. So you access the share from its URL in Dolphin, and then click on the file in Dolphin, and then VLC shows that dialog?
