I use v3.4.0 on adroid 7.1.2 miui 9

I am having trouble in Signal messenger app, when selecting a custom notification sound using Simple File manager.

After navigating to desired sound, the filename is shown in Signal's settings but no sound being played on messages receive.

However if I attempt to select the notification with Amaze file manager, the filename is also shown in Singal's settings but with the difference that sound is being played during notification event.

My instincts telling me the path is parsed differently and I have limited knowledge of who should be responsible for the correct path format. You or the Signal devs.

if it works with Amaze, I can do it too on my side :)

Viewing crashlog of other apps like Protonmail Client, I see the SFM path is prepended to the path of the selected file. Must be bad path resolving somwhere inside SFM.
