Description

Describe the bug
If I try to open an audio file with the app Namida (also open source) I get a warning "Couldn't play file (Empty List)" and the file doesn't play. But with almost every other file manager (like fossify file manager) it works well.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Namida
  2. Open any audio file in amaze
  3. Select Namida as Player
  4. See error

Expected behavior
It should play the file.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Galaxy S24
  • OS: OneUI 7 (Android 15)
  • Rooted: No
  • Version: 3.10

Additional context
I guess it doesn't share the audio file information to external apps.

Research direction

The issue names no source file or test. Reproduce the steps on Android 15 with AmazeFileManager 3.10, then trace the entry point used when opening an audio file in an external app, especially the handoff to Namida. Done means the selected audio file opens and plays in Namida without the “Empty List” warning.
