Failure to create bookmarkData in sandboxed app

    NSError *error = nil;
    NSURLBookmarkCreationOptions options = NSURLBookmarkCreationSuitableForBookmarkFile | NSURLBookmarkCreationWithSecurityScope;
    NSData *bookmarkData = [self.url bookmarkDataWithOptions:options
                          includingResourceValuesForKeys:nil
                                           relativeToURL:nil
                                                   error:&error];

This code works fine in a non-sandboxed app (without the NSURLBookmarkCreationWithSecurityScope option). It also works fine in a sandboxed app, when I leave out the NSURLBookmarkCreationWithSecurityScope. However when I execute the code as written above in a sandboxed app the bookmarkDataWithOptions:etc… method returns nil, and an error: Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=256 "The file “xxx” couldn’t be opened."

self.url is a copy of a fileURL requested from an NSDocument.

I've added the com.apple.security.files.bookmarks.app-scope entitlement to the entitlements file, and checked "Use entitlements file". I want to create app scope bookmarks and I think the code above is correct. Is there anything else that needs to be set up, or am I misunderstanding anything? I can't find anything in the docs or by searching for similar problems (they turn up, but nowhere do I see a replica if this precise case,  nor any pointers in somewhat similar cases that led me to a solution).
