I have created a wixlib file with the files embedded in to it. When I try to add this as a file reference to a votive project it says "A reference to myfile.wixlib could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid reference". If I add the command line to the wixlib to the linker additional parameters the setup builds correctly.
Adding the wixlib as a project reference works (but probably isn't the same as I wouldn't expect the files to be embedded in this case).

I am not able to repro this bug.
I suspect that you might have a bad wixlib.
Could you attach the wixlib you were using to the bug?
Thanks

Never mind on my last comment.
I found the repro.
There is a bug on IDE when creating wixlib with embeded files.
If a wixlib has embeded files, this bug reproes.

I am still getting this error but if I close and reopen the project the reference has actually been added.

It looks like the fix was checked into the old branch.
I will ask someone to port the fix over.

The fix works for me.
