sshfs mount is not accessible on Android apps

I'm not sure if it's the encryption or dalvik version or what but on Xperia 10 the directory I mount my sshfs filesystem to become either non-existing or unaccessible while showing the size to be 0 bytes on Android apps. On Xperia X I could access sshfs mounts just fine.
Did you check the permissions ? Can you provide any extra information like the mount point on your device / SailfishOS version / if you can see the mounted dir from Native Sailfish etc ?

/home/nemo/android_storage/Pictures/sarjis. I'm on 3.3.0.16. The mounted directory is fully accessable from native apps.It seems that the Android apps see it as a file of unknown type rather than a directory, offering other apps to try to open it with when trying to open it in an Android file browser. The non-existence in some apps is probably because of that since at first I was trying to get to it with a comic reader app which of course only shows directories and supported file types.
