As per our investiagtion , it was/is working correctly up to app version "107.1.6 "  and broken in latest version.

Thanks for the additional information! A fix for this is tentatively planned to ship in an update to the Dropbox Android app next week. I'll follow up here once I have news on that.

The Dropbox Chooser now correctly returns local file links again for ResultType.FILE_CONTENT as of the latest version of the official Dropbox Android app, v114.
