Quod Libet can't play back or scan from a FUSE Volume on Windows

[DireMunchkin]

Steps to reproduce

I have my music library synced via Cryptomator - How it works for the purposes of playing back a song from it is that it decrypts a folder from i.e. Dropbox and the mounts the plaintext folder as a FUSE volume.

Quod Libet cannot scan or play back from this FUSE volume - If you make this the scan directory and then scan, it'll freeze and never complete. If you open a song from there with Open With > Quod Libet it can't be played back and you get an I/O error that I attached below.

Other Windows native music players like Media Player or Groove Music work as expected if a little slow.

This seems to be rather similar to this issue, which was closed without any fixes.

I did some more searching, and found this other issue. Which led me to this bug in CPython. So in conclusion it seems like this is a known upstream bug in CPython file path library! I'm closing it as there's nothing to do in Quod Libet.
