Problem Details:

At first I would like to apologize in advance because my english skills aren't perfect but I hope you will understand me - I guess...

Since I'm uploading some of my beatmaps I noticed that the download doesn't work. The bug started someday when I've uploaded my beatmap and wanted to present my "masterpiece" to others. As you have finished downloading with osu!direct (/np) or through your browser you can see that the beatmap isn't listed ingame nor playable (1). Even if you try to "Update to latest version" it doesn't work either (2). Now when you refresh (Pressing F5) it's listed (3) but it seems to be a new beatmap without any circles when you go to the editor (4). So I made a research by myself and recognized that the .osu file in the song folder is incorrect and some hitsounds are missing as well. I've uploaded a functioning version on puu.sh and it works fine, the map is listed and playable (6). Also in a multiplayer lobby no one is able to download my selected map and it is a bit annoying to download a song manually.
I already tried to fix my problem and reinstalled osu! without any maps in my song folder and many other things, but nothing has changed. Alternatively I've waited for a long time and hoped that this bug would be fixed automatically in the next osu! updates.
Now I'm here to describe my problem and I really hope that someone can help me out.

[If you want to convince yourself, try to download my beatmaps ("SpongeBOZZ - Yellow Bar Mitzvah" to my newest map)]

Make sure you don't have any 0 byte files in your song folder, this breaks BSS and maps.

Does it really breaks maps ? I've already used hitsounds with 0 bytes in the past for my mapping and there was no problem with it.

Well your map is broken, so yes, it does. The direct download link you provided in your Zektbach - Raison d'etre map has a soft-hitnormal.mp3 file that is 0 bytes.

Thanks for your quick reply. Apparently osu! doesn't like any 0 byte files in song folders. I could fix it and really want to thank you guys! (;
