Thought so - just trialling things in desperation.

Yes, I have tone picker installed because it previously allowed me to
assign arbitrary mp3s as tones.

Yes, it works. However my mp3 tones are not listed by the android
system picker - it only shows the default set of tones. That is why I
am relying on other tone "pickers".
In case it helps, Android seems to search for new tones (and other
media like pictures, etc.) when remounting the SD card. I always make
sure my tones have ID3v2 tags.
So I'm guessing that you've only tested this for the system picker?
