Nemo sidebar places view fails to show network mounted devices #67

I have two shares on a NAS device. My notebook connects to my LAN via wireless. These shares are mounted by a systemd script after NetworkManager-wait-online.service is valid so are only mounted when on my home LAN.
systemdNASmount.zip (read nasmount-how.txt first, this script has worked well for years.)
The manner in which Nemo displays this should be the same on 22.3 as on 22.2 and older versions. It is not the same. The Nemo sidebar is set to view 'Places' in both 22.2 and 22.3.
These shares appear under the 'Devices' label in 22.2, They do not appear at all in 22.3.
If I select the 'Tree' view the shares are correctly displayed in the sidebar.
I open either share from the desktop icon, the content is displayed correctly, but the mounted device still does not appear in the Nemo sidebar.
Nemo 6.6.2 on 22.3, mounted shares not included
Nemo 22.3, mounted shares not included
Nemo 6.4.5 on 22.2 showing mounted shares
Nemo 22.2 showing mounted shares

On my (wired LAN, 22.2) desktop with the shares mounted in fstab, these shares appear under the 'Network' label, so having them appear under 'Devices' on a wireless LAN is a minor anomaly, presumably due to the manner and timing of the mount.
I have tried to review nemo-places-sidebar.c, to no avail, not really my skillset...
