Images in vendor/assets not being included in asset pipeline

The "X" image on the upper right part of the popup used to edit recurring todos is not available. According to Firebug, the CSS is:

background: url("images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_60_fece2f_500x100.png") repeat-x scroll 50% 50% #fece2f;

However, this file does not exist (HTTP 404). It only exists in TRACKS_ROOT/vendor/assets/stylesheets/images/.

I run using WEBrick with precompiled assets (according to doc/installation.textile). I edited config/environments/production.rb so that assets are provided (config.serve_static_assets = true). The CSS files and the delete/edit/star icons are served correctly.

What does the WEBrick log show for the 404 error?

I also get similar errors for other images.

Yes, I am able to reproduce this. It appears that nothing from vendor/assets/stylesheets/images is available. Either the location isn't being included, or image files aren't being included from that location.
