Thanks @nilendraFabric for the idea and links. Unfortionally mssparkutils experiences the same issue. Non of the links seems to be the same issue, at least on a surface level.
However, mssparkutils.fs.ls returns an empty list so for now I just made a loop to wait for my shortcut to be accessible if\when the issue occurs as a workarround.
df_mnt = mssparkutils.fs.ls(f"file://{mssparkutils.fs.getMountPath('/default/Files/synapse_link/')}")
while not df_mnt:
print("Waiting 10 seconds for shortcut to mount...")
sleep(10)
df_mnt = mssparkutils.fs.ls(f"file://{mssparkutils.fs.getMountPath('/default/Files/synapse_link/')}")
