Since a few months (I don't remember if this started happening with Plasma 6.3.0 or a little before), everytime I run in bash $ sshfs ~/foo user@ipaddress:/bar as soon I get prompted for the password, Plasma panel freezes and to switch application I am forced to use ALT+TAB. As soon I enter the password and press Enter, the Plasma panel gets back to normal behaviour Plasma 6.3.4 Kf 6.12.0 Qt 6.8.2 Fedora 41 KDE
The dialog that appears asking for your password is interactive, right? Sounds like it's just modal.
it is not a popup dialog box. It's just a password prompt within bash

Well that's very odd, then. If your home folder mounted from a network location or something? Can you attach a screen recording of it happening?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #4) > If your home folder mounted from a network location or something? It's not the home folder, it's a home subfolder. I made a mistake in the first message, here is the correct command I use sshfs -o cache=yes -o kernel_cache user@192.168.1.100:/zpool_1/archive /home/user/remote > Can you attach a screen recording of it happening? It would take a lot to censor sensitive data, but if we really need a video I will provide it
It's okay, you don't have to. Still, you're using the system in a way that's known to cause issues like these; manually mounting network locations that UI software will use is playing with fire.

I use Samba for file sharing between machines, and not with manual mounts, either. I just set up the remote location as a Places panel item using its smb:// URL and everything just works through the magic of KIO and KIO-FUSE.

I need SSH authentication method that is unavailable for both SMB and NFS
