That‘s cool! I had the issue come up multiple times. Once booking a DB -> ÖBB night train through DB, which they didn't "view" as one ticket although it was one purchase. Eventually (7 month after the trip) I got compensated for the DB ticket I had to buy, because I missed my night train. But there are also private night train providers like European Sleeper, where you can only book tickets through their website. I don't think that DB cares about them.

Was that trip before 2017? The agreement was created on that year an only includes the public companies: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agreement_on_Journey_Continuation So DB doesn't care about European Sleeper, because they're not part of the agreement.
