The apparmor policy for scopes prevents them from looking at the
Downloads folder, which is why this does not work.

In addition, the media scanner does not scan the Downloads folder for
content, so the video won't be indexed.

This is by design, so scopes cannot spy on applications that place
content into the Downloads folder.

Adding apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu for review, just in case someone decides
to relax the policy.
