When I test it, I get a the download to 
~/.local/share/ubuntu-download-manager/singledownload.ubuntu/Downloads/, 
which is readable for the app. You can either use the file from that 
location or copy it somewhere else.  (Copying the file will require a 
C++ plugin, as far as I know.)

It used to be that apparmor didn't allow access to this directory, but 
that was fixed six months ago.  See LP#1384349.  If you're seeing 
apparmor denials for this directory in a current image, you should 
probably file another bug against apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu.
