STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin 25.04.1 2. Enter a valid sftp address such as sftp://postix@host _or_ fish://postix@host in the address bar 3. Hit enter OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin keeps saying "Loading ..." and "Connecting ..." forever. Journalctl logs `kf.kio.core: Invalid URL: QUrl("")` EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin connects successfully or at least aborts and shows a useful error. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250509 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.13.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 Kernel Version: 6.14.5-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
`sftp -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa postix@host` works fine
If I try to add a new network folder in the remote section of Dolphin, it keeps saying "Examining" forever and nothing useful is logged.

Follow up from the post above: When I click now with the cursor into the address bar in Dolphin and hit "enter" to (again try to) open the remote directory, kio logs `kf.kio.core: Invalid URL: QUrl("")` as once stated above.
For the time being I've worked around it by `sshfs -o IdentityFile=~/.ssh/id_rsa,default_permissions postix@host:/ /mnt/foo`
