External library photos disappear until manual scan

Hi all, I’m having an issue with my Immich where photos from my external library temporarily disappear from the main Photos library.

The external library is correctly connected and initially shows up fine. However, each morning when I check, the photos are gone from the main Photos view until I manually trigger a rescan via External Libraries → Scan All Libraries. Once I do that, everything reappears.

This makes me think that the library watching or scheduled periodic scanning isn't working as expected.

I'm happy to share logs—just not sure what I should be looking for to diagnose this. Below is an excerpt from the logs from before and after I trigger a manual scan.

Thanks so much.
