SUMMARY

Sending files from KDE Connect on my Desktop (Linux, not a KDE desktop in case this is relevant) to my phone (Android, Pixel 4a) fails silently.
This used to work up until recently. I cannot say for sure, but I believe this started happening with the update from 23.08 to 24.05.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click "Share File" on KDE Connect in Linux
2. Select File to send

OBSERVED RESULT

On Desktop: Nothing happens, everything appears as if it "just worked".
On Phone: Notification with "Tap to open", but nothing happens when tapping it.

File is not in Download folder on phone.

EXPECTED RESULT

File should be in Download folder on phone. If there is a problem, an error should be shown.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo Linux with lxqt desktop (current)
(available in About System)
Qt Version: 6.7.2
