Morning!
Had issues with this chip being recognized by the UNO, but after a good solid solder, that issue was fixed.
Currently however the serial monitor is telling me that its playing the mp3 files, but I'm not receiving any audio.
I checked the solder and my connections are good, power is being supplied by the arduino, yet no audio.
As an FYI, my mp3 files are about 20 seconds long, but in the serial monitor it looks like it "plays" track001.mp3 for a fraction of a second before moving on to track002.mp3, which it "plays" for the same amount of time and then indicates that its done playing music. So the entire program runs for about 1 second before finishing. So if it is actually initializing the mp3 files, its only doing it very very briefly, which might be the issue.
Included are my photos so you can see the connections I have.
Tracks in the SD card are labeled correctly.
The SD card I'm using is a "SanDisk Ultra 64GB Micro SDXC".
Thank you for your fast response.

Well, the most likely reason for it to stop playing like that would be that there's something wrong with your mp3 files. Do they play correctly on your computer? What sample rate are they?
If you run the SD library listfiles example, are the files listed properly? Are the filenames in 8.3 format?
When you run the player_simple example, do the test tones come out?
Can you post the output of Serial Monitor?

I am hearing tones in the headphones very briefly (kind of...more like a "hazy" have beat). So I assume those are the test tones you are speaking of. I also ran the SD Library test files and it appears good there also (screen shot included here), also here is the serial screen shot of the simple test as well.

Additionally I re-formatted the SD card and uploaded two new .mp3 files with the same results. These mp3 files came from a BARE electronics default sounds, so I know they are acceptable.
Any additional thoughts would be helpful.
Do you this an 64 GB SD card could be the problem? I don't see why though.

The test tone should be a clear sine wave, as I recall.
In your screenshot of SDLibraryList, the file names don't appear to be 8.3 format. That's why you're seeing the '~' in the names. Make sure the file names are 8.3, and the folder names are 8 characters or less. No spaces, either.
Do you have any wav files you can test with?
