I ended up buying a 256GB Micro SD card just so I can take all of my music with me on the phone, but for some reason the Music app says 'no music files detected'.
You're not the only one. The music application also doesn't detect my music files (even after I mount he SD card). I even tried making a sym link from the SD card music files to my music folder in my home directory. No dice.
I am able to get the player to import songs by navigating to them in the file manager and opening them with music player, though. Once imported, they stay there. I just don't want to do this for each song in my library.
What the others are trying to dell you is that your SD card doesn't automatically mount in Ubuntu Touch. You have to manually mount it using various methods. For instance, I created a folder named sd in my home directory and then mounted the card there:
mkdir ~/sd
mount /dev/mmcblk0 ~/sd
You can then navigate to the files on the card from the terminal or in the file manager.
Didn't work for me, but I might have made a typo somewhere along the line.
I'm hoping UBports will do a significant update soon, because this thing has just been sitting in my drawer for a month.
