Media files not downloaded in first full sync (v2.1.28)

I have just downloaded Anki for Linux, built it with the instructions from the website, and then did a full sync from AnkiWeb. All my cards were downloaded, but none of the media files, which was very surprising. Looking at the file system (/home/mc/.local/share/Anki2/User%201/collection.media), there is indeed nothing in the media folder. I’ve just backed up the media files from AnkiDroid, just in case. Also, Tools -> Check media... tells me there are “Missing files: ⁨273⁩”, and then lists all of them.

Oh! I just synced for the second time, and now the files have appeared!

Should be fixed in the next update, thanks.
