Can't get external libraries working

Hi. Trying to get an external library set up and it doesn't appear to be finding anything. I followed the guide by doing the following:
- added the volume to the docker-compose.yml under server and microservices: - /mnt/server_photos/Family21:/mnt/media/Family21:ro
- restarted the container
- set the external path under administration->users for the only user in the system - me.: /mnt/media
- added the external library and set the import path to /mnt/media/Family21
- clicked on "scan media files" many times 🙂
when I shell into the container and ls /mnt/media/Family21, there are no files listed. It's like the mount isn't mounted
