Research direction

Start by reproducing the ringtone selection flow at Settings → Account Settings → Notifications → New mail ringtone on Android 7.1.2 with LineageOS. Read the related issues #5806 and #4596, then locate the notification ringtone handling used by this settings path. Done means selecting an audio file successfully sets it as K-9's ringtone.
