9 years ago does it work if you use an absolute path to your bibliography?

I started prototyping a document and played with inserting citation links with org-ref. Unfortunately I ran in to some problems.
I have setup org-ref for my default bibliography in ~/research/bibliography.bib as well as for reftex. If I only insert cite: links this works as expected and I can click the links and open pdf links etc.
If I try to export my document to a latex file with the org export command (C-c C-e) then the resulting tex file will not have any links to any bibliography files as expected. Now if I add the bibliography key: bibliography:~/research/bibliography.bib this will exports to the tex file, however it seems tex does not support the ~ character for linking to $HOME. There are two ways to remedy this that I have found, either add "\string" in front of the link, or add/copy a link in ~/texmf/bibtex/bib/ to your bib file which makes it possible to just add "bibliography" to the tex file loosing the path from the end.
However, doing any of these two solutions breaks org-ref linking to the bibliography and org-ref can no longer find the bibliography file.
What I want to avoid is to have to copy my global bibliography to the local directory with the org file while still being able to export to latex. Have I missed some detail of how to deal with this issue? Is there a smart way already to avoid this and still being able to export to tex with a global bib file, and if not could this be fixed with an expand file name for "~" in the bibliography link?
