I cannot speak for Apple nor Android (the Sony) but in Windows that is experienced behaviour, an alias named file if manually renamed does not necessarily work. But keeping in mind that ending up with an alias name presented to one to use in Windows is very rare, usually associated with files traversing very old and newer Windows. I haven't come across it for over a decade.

But it may, as you say, also be that the original files have some sort of corruption.
