Cannot write to SD card on Lollipop

Clementine Remote says it can't write to the directory but it's possible on Lollipop: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getExternalMediaDirs%28%29

Are you using v10.1? In this version a check is implemented to determine if the directory is writable by creating a temporary file in the folder. If it returns false, it is definitly not possible to write to that directory.

I'm using the latest build, unlike other apps, Clementine never asked for write permission for the external storage.

Just checked with the latest build, upon attempting to select external SD, Clementine Remote returns "Directory not writeable".

Will this issue be fixed? If so, how soon?

I added a bunch of fallbacks on this. Unforunatly, I don't have a device that shows this problem and I have no idea how to fix it. Downloading should be possible to /sdcard/0/Android/data/.... This is the first entry when you click on the download folder option in the settings.
