SUMMARY
The Hard Disk Activity doesn't read any activity on my hard drive. It is an eMMC/NAND internal storage device, seen as /dev/mmcblk0

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add Hard Disk Acivity widget to desktop, or just open plasma-systemmonitor and look at the Hard Drive entry
2. Notice there is no activity regardless of what system is actually doing.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
No Activity

EXPECTED RESULT
Visible Activity

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Shane 2024-08-25 13:50:28 UTC
I wanted to add that when I have mounted an sd card locally as well as sshfs for remote and they both show activity on the widget. It's only when my actual internal storage "/dev/mmcblk0" is being accessed that it does not.
Comment 2 Shane 2024-09-22 20:57:56 UTC
Still exhibiting the behavior after the latest update
Comment 3 Arjen Hiemstra 2024-09-30 08:59:43 UTC
Is the drive listed as part of the sensors if you configure the applet? If not, we'll need the output of `solid-hardware6 query "[IS StorageAccess AND IS StorageVolume]"` to start with. If it is, we'll need the output of `cat /proc/diskstats`.
Comment 4 Shane 2024-09-30 11:09:57 UTC
The drive is not listed in the configuration of the applet. Here is the info requested:

solid-hardware6 query "[IS StorageAccess AND IS StorageVolume]"

udi = '/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/mmcblk0p1'
udi = '/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sda1'
udi = '/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/mmcblk0p2'

cat /proc/diskstats
