I have the same problem here. As far as I could find out, it is necessary to set the following access in AndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

However, Google is very restrictive when it comes to this setting: More information here: https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/manage-all-files#all-files-access-google-play

In my specific case, I download files for editing. After I edited the file with another app, e.g. Word, I no longer have access to it and I get the same error you described above.

Have you found a solution?

Here is my Output from Logcat:
