Custom text alert sounds dissappearing

I loaded some custom sounds to my phone (into the ringtones folder) and edited some contacts and assigned those tones to contacts as text alert sounds.
A few days later the contacts had lost those custom alerts, although they still appeared in the ringtone folder.
I reassigned the tones to the contacts but a few days later they had gone again - why is this ?
