It seems that this issue has been fixed at the latest code on the github.
You should refer to this commit (https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x/commit/bd6aa9844551e3cc22a5c971864698671af00af9).

string CCFileUtils::getWriteablePath()
{
    // Fix for Nexus 10 (Android 4.2 multi-user environment)
    // the path is retrieved through Java Context.getCacheDir() method
    string dir("");
    const char *tmp = getCacheDirectoryJNI();

    if (tmp)
    {
        dir.append(tmp).append("/");

        return dir;
    }
    else
    {
        return "";
    }
}

Be carefull, the folder returned by getCacheDir() may be deleted at any time, I changed it to getFilesDir()
