Rails CDN URL not used in SASS Files

How can I ensure that the SASS helpers in the sass-rails gem generate URLs against my CDN?

I have this in my application.rb:

config.asset_host = 'https://cdn.host.com/'

Which makes it so the head of the document has:

<link href="https://cdn.host.com/favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" />
<link href="https://cdn.host.com/assets/application.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

However my CSS files look like this:

.splash { background: url('/assets/hero.png'); }

Are you using the image_url helper method in your SCSS file?

.splash { background: image_url('assets/hero.png'); }

This article may help you out a bit, and fwiw, if you are using SASS (as opposed to SCSS) then you might need to use image-url instead of image_url, I don't know for sure though

Update:

.splash { background: image_url('/assets/hero.png'); }  // will still fetch from the localhost...
 .splash { background: image_url('assets/hero.png'); }  // work perfectly fine..
