Adrien, David,

The same issue occurs in Linux Mint 19(Tara) which is Ubuntu 18.04 based.
Nemo (file explorer)  can see the mounted USB stick and access it directly
or via the /media/<user>/ mount point for the device but the Gnucash file
open dialog neither sees the USB stick or /media/<user>/ mount point when
you click on other locations. It only lists a restricted set of the
directories under / by comparison with what can be accessed from Nemo. Not
being able to access the /media mount points would qualify as a bug.

 On LM19 /media has 755 permissions, the user directory under it has 750 and
the mounted USB stick has 755 permissions. 

The file->Open dialog in LibreOffice which looks to be a similar GTK3 dialog
does display the USB stick in the sidebar and it sees all the directories
under / as well as any networked locations which don't show up in GnuCash
either.

if no-one has already filked a bug i will put one in later today.
