Documents Directory URL seems changing, file can't be found after recompiling

I have an issue, I created a function to save an audio file to directory and the URL String to SwiftData. All works fine but if I recompile the app the audio file seems can't be found again?

Here is the setup of the recorder

    func setupRecorder() throws {
    let recordSettings = [AVFormatIDKey: Int(kAudioFormatMPEG4AAC_HE), AVSampleRateKey: 44100, AVNumberOfChannelsKey: 1, AVEncoderAudioQualityKey: AVAudioQuality.high.rawValue] //as [String : Any]
    let documentPath = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)[0]
    let audioFileName = documentPath.appendingPathComponent("audio_"+"\(self.fileName)"+"_recording.m4a")
    audioRecorder = try AVAudioRecorder(url: audioFileName, settings: recordSettings)
    audioRecorder.prepareToRecord()
}

-> Note: fileName is just a random UUID().string

Here is how I extract the url into a string to save it in SwiftData

    func saveRecording() -> String {
    guard let url = recordingList.last else { return "" }
    let strURL = url.absoluteString
    return strURL
}

So, after all this works and I can also close the app and open and the file is there but only after I recompile the project the file cannot be found again? Any ideas?

I created another app similar to this one but only saving images and I don't have the issue there.
