Unmounted HDD software RAID missing in Dolphin/Devices after upgrade

I’m running the latest Tumbleweed and just periodically do a zypper dup with great success. At some point in the last couple months my extra data HDD drive disappeared from Dolphin under the Devices label. I still have another non-RAID drive that shows there that I can mount.
It’s always just been there since first install, I manually mount it when needed.

I took a dive into mdadm and can manually set configs for the drive, and mount it manually with the terminal, but it still doesn’t show as a mountable on-click device in Dolphin. Does anyone have an idea where to look as to why it won’t auto-detect my software RAIDed drives? I have no idea how Dolphin decides if an unmounted device shows up in that section.

I should’ve paid better attention to upgrade differences but it would’ve suddenly broke in a release somewhere between Dec 1, 2025 and Feb 1, 2026 I think.

Well it’s fixed now somewhere in the mid March, 2026 releases. I’m not clever enough to diff the OS or understand where it was fixed, so I’m just posting so others know in case this ever comes up in the future.
