Same thing happens to me. In my case, I often don't see the shortcut file. Sometimes they do show up if I reload or open the folder again.

@hishitetsu is this still an issue in the latest preview?

Yes, but I've found that shortcuts sometimes don't show up even on local disk. Perhaps it happens when the shortcut destination takes a long time to load.
