Description Wismill 2025-05-25 09:13:22 UTC 
SUMMARY
External USB DVD writer is not detected by Plasma: no pop-up to ask to mount the device and it does not show in Dolphin. However it work, as it is detected properly by the venerable K3b.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Plug the DVD writer in
2. Insert a CD/DVD

OBSERVED RESULT
No pop-up to mount, not showing in Dolphin

EXPECTED RESULT
Pop-up to mount and shows in Dolphin

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I do not think it is proper to Dolphin, but I do not know which component of KDE it corresponds to. Maybe frameworks? Do I miss a package?

Note that it does show up *after* mounting it in K3b.
