Huawei M5 can't get USB-C CF card reader to work

I've used a USB-C compact flash card reader for a while with my Samsung S8 to download photos and edit on Lightroom Mobile.

I've recently bought a Huawei M5 media pad to do the same thing. However the card doesn't show up on the Huawei. If I go to the USB options there are options to import photos/files as a default, but if I select this it quickly then reverts back to the reverse charge option.

Does anyone know why I'm having issues with the Huawei, and if there's a way around it?

Ooops my bad!

I had another Google with Compact Flash in the search..... actually I thought my original search had it :LOL:

This one comes up though CF not stated but there is one slot that looks about the size of a CF slot.....

Though it does have a 'normal' larger usb socket.....so would it take a daisy chained CF reader and work?
