Weird startup behavior when ~/Downloads is replaced with symbolic link

Describe the bug I dual boot between Win10 and Ubuntu and share a storage partition. To facilitate downloads I have a symbolic link for ~/Downloads. This leads to error messages when I start Ao, and has lead to traceback crashes in the past which forces me to reinstall.

To Reproduce Uninstall / reinstall using snap, then enter ao from command line.

Expected behavior Startup with no error messages.

Screenshots yenson@XPS15:~$ ao /home/yenson/Downloads was removed, reassigning DOWNLOAD to homedir Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" { Error: Cannot find module '../screen' at Module._resolveFilename (module.js:543:15) at Function.Module._resolveFilename (/snap/ao/10/resources/electron.asar/common/reset-search-paths.js:35:12) at Function.Module._load (module.js:473:25) at Module.require (module.js:586:17) at require (internal/module.js:11:18) at Object.get [as screen] (/snap/ao/10/resources/electron.asar/browser/api/exports/electron.js:11:16) at createMainWindow (/snap/ao/10/resources/app.asar/index.js:43:36) at App.app.on (/snap/ao/10/resources/app.asar/index.js:102:16) at emitTwo (events.js:131:20) at App.emit (events.js:214:7) code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND' }
