Protractor CSV file upload doesn't work

I have problem when trying to upload a csv of excel files via protractor. File is valid. When I upload it manually everything is fine. But for some reason, upload with protractor says that size is 0, and type is not recognized.

Screenshot of file details after upload

Upload code:

var fileToUpload = './test.csv';
var absolutePath = path.resolve(__dirname, fileToUpload);

element(by.css("input[type=\"file\"]")).sendKeys(absolutePath);

Also I have tried with absolute path, without path.resolve, and also I have tried with xlsx file. Problem remains the same.

I believe I've found the cause. From my tests it seems like the File type is missing, see below:

For a .csv file:

File
    lastModified: 1468589472000
    lastModifiedDate: Fri Jul 15 2016 14:31:12 GMT+0100 (BST)
    name: "valid-import.csv"
    size: 198
    type: ""
    webkitRelativePath: ""

For a .svg file:

File
    lastModified: 1468587182000
    lastModifiedDate: Fri Jul 15 2016 13:53:02 GMT+0100 (BST)
    name: "valid-import.svg"
    size: 1030
    type: "image/svg+xml"
    webkitRelativePath: ""

Note the missing type attribute — I'm trying to dig further into this, if I find anything I'll update this answer.
