Targeting Desktop MacOS using JVM-based libraries (Like VLCJ) crash when called at runtime with permissions error, runs fine in the IDE

[realityexpander]

Describe the bug

When attempting to build a MacOS Desktop target using the VLCJ library (per the example in the experimental folder), running it locally works as expected.

After creating all the proper settings and configurations for a signed App acceptance per Apple's instructions and successfully uploading of a build (which runs fine locally), and is accepted by Apple. The App is then made available in TestFlight for users to download.

Upon a user downloading an launching the App, everything works fine until accessing the VLCJ videoplayer, which causes a crash. The library is successfully loaded, but something else is causing a violation (permissions? library not signed?):

I am able to get any regular Kotlin-native library (for KMM/KMP) work fine on all platforms. It's just these libaries that link back to JVM somewhere... like VLCJ or WebView.

Please forgive my lack of proper terminology, I am an Android/iOS developer, MacOS desktop is totally new to me.

Affected platforms

• Desktop (macOS) only

Versions

• Kotlin version*: 1.9.23
• Compose Multiplatform version*: 1.6.6
• OS version(s)* (required for Desktop and iOS issues): 14.4.1 (23E224)
• OS architecture (x86 or arm64): arm64
• Device (model or simulator for iOS issues): Any
• JDK (for desktop issues): Corretto 18.0.2, Corretto 20.0.1, Temurin 21.0.2, Temurin 20.0.2

To Reproduce
Steps and/or the code snippet to reproduce the behavior:

Reference project and commit:
https://github.com/realityexpander/CloudCoverUSA2/blob/37feae3c18c55591331c2981eb149b2ab3e84dd9/composeApp/src/commonMain/kotlin/App.kt#L471

Include a JVM library (like this:)

// build.graadle.kts (:composeApp)
desktopMain.dependencies {
            implementation(compose.desktop.currentOs)
            implementation(compose.desktop.common)
            implementation(libs.ktor.client.java)
            implementation(libs.coil.network.ktor)

            // for vlcj
            implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-swing:1.8.0")
            implementation("uk.co.caprica:vlcj:4.8.2")
        }

Running locally (using composeDesktop:run, composeDesktop:runRelease) works great. composeDesktop:runDistributable and composeDesktop:runReleaseDistributable have never worked for me.

Target MacOS desktop using the packagePkg task. Everything signs properly and upload is accepted by Apple.
Upon downloading and accessing the VLCJ component causes a crash at runtime, and these windows pop-up:

Expected behavior
I expect the same behavior when running locally, ie: the VLCJ library has full functionality and does not crash at runtime after distribution via Apple TestFlight or production.

PS: I targeted iOS and use KMM/KMP libraries for video and it works on Desktop for arm64 macs with no problems.
