Description

### ⚠️ Before posting ⚠️

- [x] This is a **bug**, not a question or an enhancement.
- [x] I've [searched for similar issues](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues) and didn't find a duplicate.
- [x] I've written a clear and descriptive title for this issue, not just "Bug" or "Crash".
- [x] I agree to follow Nextcloud's [Code of Conduct](https://nextcloud.com/contribute/code-of-conduct/).

### Steps to reproduce

Install debug version of the app referenced here: https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/16550
APK (2026-03-19): https://cloud.nextcloud.com/s/9GQTPHJrdPKj75j

Login to my Nexcloud instance

Change auto-upload settings

- Include photos and videos from the Camera folder
- Change server location
- turn on the year/month subfolders

### Expected behaviour

Everything uploads according to the settings I've set

### Actual behaviour

Videos upload correctly

Photos - nothing happens (previously this was working, but with the usual issues of failed uploads not restarting etc.)

From the images you can see that Nexcloud can find the images of the bike parts, but isn't uploading them, and they haven't already been uploaded as they would appear at the top of the Media list
