The problem was requestLegacyExternalStorage was not set to true in the manifest file. Because of scoped external storage by default it is set to false in Android 10 or higher. Adding this line in the AndroidManifest.xml solved my problem.

<manifest ... >
  <!-- This attribute is "false" by default on apps targeting
       Android 10 or higher. -->
  <application 
       android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" ........ >
    ......
  </application>
</manifest>

I am running the sample app on my Android 10 Emulator with an external sd card. The external sd card is not showing unfortunately. I only see 2 dirs under /mnt, asec and obb. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Edit: Ah.. Im running SDK 30, thats Android 10+. I guess that's not supported yet.
