The Jolla has some undocumented features here. I chose Rope as a single favourite Ambience. After a few reboots I suddenly have two favourite Ambiences: Red Poppy and Snow White.

Those are the ambiences that are being automatically installed and favorited when you put on the other halves.

I might have never had this problem from the beginning, it turns out. I just hadn't realized that only the favorite ambiences show up in the swipe@home interface.

I know. This time they were favourited when the Red Poppy OH stayed on. The white OH is in the box, to stay there.

ah, ok. I'm swapping OH's every day, so I figured it'd be unavoidable to avoid snow and poppy :-)

Does a give (among other things):pkcon has some builtin dutch

What do you mean with swipe@home? Never have seen to apply ambience outside the gallery app

Apply some ambiences as favorites and then do the 'multitask' swipe when on home screen or on the 'taskswitcher' screen and voila there you go.
(swipe over the right or left edge, not just from right to left)

I had this problem too. I made some custom ambiences from images. I made them favourites and could see them in the swipe sideways from the home screen, then later I noticed that they were gone, not in the gallery or anywhere else that I could see. I think this was after a reboot but not after an update.

I recreated the custom ambiences then installed the red other half for the first time. After installing it only the white and red ambiences and original ambiences were available, all my custom ambiences were gone.

Now I've just rebooted and my custom ambiences are gone again… Very frustrating.

A custom ambience is a good way to get a 'profiles'-style switch, for instance an ambience which is darker in colour and where each of the notifications is set either to silence or only a short beep. This way i can get the beep notification just like on the N9.

All my ambiances and pictures dissapeared from the gallery app last week. They were still on the phone, gallery app just didn't find them. Didn't have the time to find out how to fix them

Today I noticed that they had magically reappeared in the gallery.

If they still on the phone, but you can't see them in the gallery, try this command, it should help without reboot (as ROOT):
Also when you copy your custom ambiences, run this command instead reboot to see them in the gallery...
