I would expect Openstudio to pass the file_paths to EnergyPlus to use to find companion files.
EnergyPlus doesn't have any inputs for where to find schedule CSV files. It either expects absolute file paths or, if a relative file path is used, it looks relative to the IDF. In the case of ResStock/OS-HPXML, we always write relative file paths in the IDF so that you can move the files around (or download them from a supercomputer) and they still work.
I don't know what exactly you're doing, but my guess is you are hitting this bug. At the moment, you have to be a bit careful about where you place files and how you set up the OSW.
