VLC can open iso files without them mounted.But why do you want to play a mounted image, instead of an iso directly ? If you cannot open them from open dialog just issue: vlc /path/to/file.iso in a console.
1Try mounting the iso using another tool like gmountiso and then try playing with vlc. This may solve your problem.
1Open Media -> Open Folder -> select mounted dvd image folder
0Once the image is mounted, open VLC.
Click File -> Open Directory.
Navigate to the mountpoint of the DVD and open the VIDEO_TS folder.
1I also had problem playing from mounted HDD and I run this command and it fixed everything:
sudo apt install browser-plugin-vlc
