SUMMARY I have a network directory mounted in Dolphin via SFTP, which is authenticated with my ssh keys. Before the update of neon to Plasma 6.1 and frameworks 6.3, I was able to open and stream video files from Dolphin with VLC without entering credentials. Now I'm asked for a user and password. This bug looks similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485068, but in my case the files are showing fine in Dolphin, but applications started from dolphin are having trouble accessing the data. OBSERVED RESULT Need to input user and password to be a EXPECTED RESULT Not needing to supply additional authentication details, when SSh keys are already configured and used. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 6.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-41-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Please attach a screenshot of the auth dialog you are seeing in vlc.

VLC version: 3.0.16 (native package, not flatpak)
That's VLCs auth dialog, means the sftp worker from kio isn't even involved. Moving to dolphin for more investigation.
The dolphin version did not change in the neon update, only plasma and frameworks got updated. It worked fine before the update. So I think the issue is likely somewhere in frameworks.
no idea why, but the problem went away when switching from RSA to ED25519 keys.
