Actually I just realize that this won't work with ubuntu-app-launch
unless the m3u file is located in one of the allowed directories (like
~/.cache/m3uplayer.mzanetti/). However, you can run it using

/opt/click.ubuntu.com/m3uplayer.mzanetti/current/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/app
/home/phablet/b5aktuell_1.m3u

--desktop_file_hint=/home/phablet/.local/share/applications/m3uplayer.mzanetti_app_0.1.desktop
