This is intentional. The file manager won't open if an SD card or phone is plugged in within 10 seconds of signing in, to prevent this exact situation. If a user keeps their SD card plugged in at all times (i.e. the the storage expansion use case), having file manager open every time they sign in is going to be very annoying very fast.
