Are you using the file search (Baloo) ?

Could be linked to the Bug 333678 - Cannot index and search files in soft link
path using Baloo Desktop Search: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333678

At here:

Case 1 - File search enabled but the symlinked folder (partition) is on the 'Do
not search' list.
The metadata is not shown: http://imgur.com/a/5Lo9B

Case 2 - File search enabled and the Baloo can index the symlinked folder.
The metadata is shown: http://imgur.com/a/SgHtE

Case 3 - File search is disabled.
The metadata is shown: http://imgur.com/a/PWNWP
