File Vault Issue

Title: File Vault Issue
Hello,

I was having some problems with very simply scripts.  Things like...

tell application "Finder"
    
    set f to choose file
   get name of f
   
end tell

Would fail every time

Also this script

tell application "Finder"
    
    set f to choose file
   
end tell

Would return

alias "toddgeist:Desktop:quotes.fp7"

This looked wrong to me.  Where was the rest of the path?  Then I remembered that I had File Vault on.  When I turned it off everything worked.  The above script returned the full path

alias "Macintosh HD:Users:toddgeist:Desktop:quotes.fp7"

My question is.  Is this a known issue?  Is there a work-a-round?

10.3.8

Thanks

Todd
