Custom ringtones for WP7 - ChevronWP7

Before I updated to WP7.5 (mango), I tried using the ChevronWP7 custom ringtone manager to get my ringtones on the phone. This requires an unlocked phone, and when I got it to work, I was able to create a XAP package and "install" the ChevronWP7 ringtones on my phone. Clicking on the "app" would simply list the 5 ringtone files that I installed, but I could never figure out how to get those files to show up in my ringtone list.

Microsoft's WP deployment tool worked, the XAP creator worked, and the app installed, but no ringtones. I've seen no answer to why this may be. Since 7.5 mango came out we can simply roll our ringtones out to WP7.5 via the Zune software.
