If you don't mind an installer package rather than a Zip, this got around that problem for me. It requires your Apple developer number (ABC...). I run the app at least once from the Applications folder, and make no resource folder, etc... changes after that. Then run this from the terminal.
productbuild --component /Applications/MyApp.app /Applications MyApp.pkg --sign "Developer ID Installer: A Name (ABCDEFGHIJ)" Some translation: productbuild --component /WhereTheAppIsNow /InstallingPutsItHere installer.pkg.is <http://installer.pkg.is/>.created.here --sign "Developer ID Installer: KeychainName (ABCDEFGHIJ)" See man productbuild in the Terminal.
