Problem
If a user installed Polkadot Vault (previously called Parity Signer: https://signer.parity.io) on a device and generated a key there some time ago and then install Polkadot Vault on a new device, when they enter the seedphrase to recover the key they will get a different address. This is caused by Polkadot Vault changing its behavior with derivation paths.
Solution
Add the Joystream network to Polkadot Vault as you normally would
Recover the key and put in the seedphrase
Open the key in your wallet
At the top right of the screen you will see a + button, press that
Select the Joystream-node network
At the bottom of the screen, press the Add Custom Derivation Path button
In the text field that says Derivation Path Name erase everything there (i.e. blank)
Press the Done button in the top right of the screen
