Yes, the file:// handling didn't work until about July, so it works in
the 3.2.0b4 development snapshots, but not in 3.2.0b3 or earlier.

3.1 only handles http:// urls, so you'd need an HTTP server to serve the
documents. You could try using local_urls, to map back to the local file
system, but you'd probably run into problems due to the limited set of
file name extensions supported by local_urls. Your find command would
have to be something like what's described in
