media not restored from db when accessing images directly

[markus2810]

Preconditions

1. Setup media files to be stored in a Database
2. Press Synchronize and wait
3. Check if media db storage is working by uploading a file from wysiwyg editor e.g. home.jpg and add it to a page

Steps to reproduce

1. Delete the file pub/media/wysiwyg/home.jpg
2. File is not displayed on the page anymore (verified that file exists in database
3. domain.com/pub/media/wysiwyg/home.jpg is returning 404

Expected result

1. File is displayed correctly. Downloaded from database.

Actual result

When I go over content->edit page->insert image. The file is loaded from the db and placed under ub/media/wysiwyg/home.jpg on the file system. After that, the direct access works again. I would expect the same load from db mechanism when the file is access directly using the url.

Am I missing something? Is this known issue?

magento version is 2.1.2
