SD card mounted to access music files unable to play

[dcinoz]

Hi,



I've searched the forum as best I could to see if there was a solution.



I have Mobian installed on SD card and Manjaro Plasma Mobile on eMMC.



I have this entry in fstab to automount the SD card:



/dev/mmcblk0p2 /media/mmcblk0p2  f2fs auto,user,rw 0 0



In Manjaro:

Symlink in ~/Music to /media/mmcblk0p2/home/mobian/Music/ogg

Code:

ls -al ~/Music:
drwxr-xr-x  3 kde users 4096 Feb 24 10:00 .
drwx------ 20 kde users 4096 Feb 24 10:21 ..
drwxr-xr-x  3 kde users 4096 Feb 24 10:00 a-ha
lrwxrwxrwx  1 kde users  38 Feb 21 17:35 ogg -> /media/mmcblk0p2/home/mobian/Music/ogg

Code:

ls -al ~/Music/ogg/:
drwxr-xr-x 164 kde users  8192 Jul 31  2020  .
drwxr-xr-x  3 kde mobian 3488 Feb 22 07:43  ..
drwxr-xr-x  3 kde users  3488 Feb 23  2020  a-ha

Code:

ls -al ~/Music/ogg/a-ha:
drwxr-xr-x  3 kde users 3488 Feb 24 10:58  .
drwxr-xr-x 164 kde users 8192 Jul 31  2020  ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 kde users 3488 Feb 24 10:00 'Headlines And Deadlines The Hits Of a-ha'

Code:

ls -al ~/Music/ogg/a-ha/Headlines\ And\ Deadlines\ The\ Hits\ Of\ a-ha/:
drwxr-xr-x 2 kde users    3488 Feb 24 10:00  .
drwxr-xr-x 3 kde users    3488 Feb 24 10:58  ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 kde users 5360878 Feb 24 10:00  a-ha_01-Take_On_Me.ogg

Originally file and folder ownership was mobian:mobian, changing to kde:users hasn't helped, vvave fails to even display the ogg folder.



I created a mobian group with gid 1000:

Code:

cat /etc/group:
mobian:x:1000:kde,mobian
users:x:985:kde,mobian

and a user mobian just in case when I had mobian:mobian ownership:

Code:

cat /etc/passwd:
mobian:x:1000:1000::/home/mobian:/bin/bash
kde:x:1000:985::/home/kde:/bin/bash

Both kde and mobian users have uid 1000 but kde has gid 985, mobian 1000.


Any idea what I am doing wrong? What user / group is vvave using to try and access my ogg symlink?



The pinephone 16GB eMMC is not large enough for my music files, but the a-ha folder I copied to ~/Music/ is accessible by vvave.



I tried adding uid=1000 in fstab but that doesn't work.



Thanks for your help.
