Description

**Describe the bug**
Hi,
I am trying to use rclone to mount a drive in Silverblue. I need to most recent version which, somehow, I can only access via toolbox. Once there, with everything installed and my rclone remote configured, I mount my remote.

However, the files are only visible when accessing the local mounted folder from within toolbox. When I access the same folder via the Files app, the folder in question is empty.

I guess this is linked to the way Toolbox works, but what is the solution to make those file available outside of toolbox?

**Steps how to reproduce the behaviour**
1. Create a toolbox
2. Install rclone and fuse; uncomment "user_allow_other" in "/etc/fuse.conf"
3. Configure and mount the remote (with "--allow-other" flag) to a local folder
4. Check the folder from within and without toolbox

**Expected behaviour**
The mounted drive would be accessible from outside toolbox.

**Actual behaviour**
The mounted drive is only visible within toolbox.

**Output of `toolbox --version` (v0.0.90+)**
`toolbox version 0.0.99.5`

**Toolbx package info (`rpm -q toolbox`)**
`toolbox-0.0.99.5-8.fc40.x86_64`

**Info about your OS**
Fedora Silverblue 40
