sorry for one wrong bugreport, but pmount bug might be real after all?
Is the volume encrypted? pmount's -p option's long form is --passphrase .
If there's no encryption present, I'd bet on the issue being with the combination of pmount and ntfs. In-kernel ntfs support was near-useless prior to 5.15, and as far as I can determine, pmount development is dead (I can't find a source repository, and Gentoo is still shipping the same base version it was ten years ago with a few patches overtop), so it may never have caught up with the in-kernel changes.
If you need this drive readable on a Windows system, try formatting it in exfat (check your pmount to make sure it's been patched for exfat first). Otherwise, just format in the ext# of your choice.
