It may be that I'm not understanding all the background here but let me step
though a few troubleshooting steps.

You have ripped a set of tracks from cassettes and have stored them in separate
.mp3 files. You say are using Fedora so you'd probably need to save your .mp3's
under the Music folder (by default Fedora indexes files under the Documents,
Music, Pictures and Videos folders. That also implies on your local disc and
not on a fileshare anywhere else)

You've run Picard and added tags to the files. These will be ID3 tags
"embedded" in the files. When you add tags, you'll be editing the .mp3's and
you'll see the modified dates of the files change.

If you open Dolphin (the file manager), press "F11" to show the information
panel and then hover the mouse pointer over one of your .mp3's you see the
details of the file, including your added tags, appearing in the right hand
panel?

... If you see the above, then tagging has worked.

Not sure whether the "Fast Native Indexer" implies "baloo", the file search
engine that comes as part of plasma, but it's possible (from the command line)
to check whether baloo is working.

Open a command line window and move to the folder where you have stored your
.mp3's. Let's say you have a file "test.mp3", where you've added some tags, in
your Music folder.

Try:
    balooshow -x test.mp3
If the indexing has worked, this should show details of the file and the tags
you've added. If you've added a tag "artist" you should be able to find the
track with
    baloosearch 'tags:artist=whatever artist'

... If the above works, then the file indexing is (probably ;-) OK and the
question is how Elisa(?) is asking for the results
