kdenetwork-filesharing still does't work in dolphin

[Ilya-JBR]

Well I've been trying to troubleshoot this for 4 hour now. The issue is when going to properties of a folder and trying to share it in dolphin results in dolphin asking you to setup samba password and keeps doing so even after doing it. there is no obvious errors neither when running dolphin in debug mode or in samba's journalctl.

1. launch dolphin and right click a folder
2. choose "properties"
3. click on the "share" tab
4. it asks you to create a new password
5. click on create samba password
6. type your password
7. click apply
8. nothing happens

config:

nix-channel: unstable;

services = {
    samba = {
      enable = true;
