When I pushed the AOSP files from the sdcard to /system/media/audio the permissions were mis-matched against the original files. Currently, they are set to "rw-r-r".
When I add sound files I don't have to set permissions... But I do have to reboot to make them usable. Have you rebooted. (Full reboot not fast boot)
