As Vanguard would likely point out, I fear there's not enough information
about the device, OS & setup steps in the above for us to help you; but
with that in mind, one trick I use under similar circumstances is I create
a prominent folder in the file system with the desired file stored in it.

Having a separate file from the ones the operating system & apps use is
sometimes beneficial for when the default needs to be reset back to it.

Having said that, and being a purposefully helpful guy, I looked up for you
what "could" be causing the problem, where these came up you may consider.

1. Software updates (to the OS or to apps) might reset default settings.
2. Battery-saving or storage-cleaning apps can "optimize" the system.
3. External storage can be unmounted causing a default to internal storage.
4. Multiple profiles or Do-not-disturb modes may switch settings.

Having said that, my ringtones don't change out from under me, but I'm on
Android 13, Galaxy A-series, Nova Launcher where yours may be different.
