readfile not working on Linux

[WolfBearGames]

What OS are you using (uname -a, or Windows version)?

Linux nobara-mini 6.7.0-204.fsync.fc39.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC TKG Wed Jan 17 09:24:55 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What version Socket Runtime are you using?

0.5.4

What did you expect to see and what you saw instead?

    try {
      const contents = await fs.readFile(filepath, { encoding: "utf8" });
      console.log(contents);
    } catch (err) {
      console.log("catch file error")
      console.error((err as Error).message);
    }

Assuming "filepath" is a valid path to a .txt. file I would expect the content of the file being read into the "contents" variable.

Instead the catch clause is used and I see the following error in the log:

"FileHandle is not opened"

See an test app for reference:
