Research direction
Start by reproducing the blank background using the linked JSON and generated DMG, mounting it at a non-standard path. Inspect how the background alias resolves in that case; done means regenerating the DMG produces a visible background instead of a blank one.

Description
I am trying to regenerate the background, but it's getting blank. The folder is inside the directory, I tried to change the name to see if the problem is related to cache, but after a few tries, now it is always blank.
