No, more than that. We don't know what the Mini doesn't like so remove
as much of what's possibly objectional as you can.
‘If the Mini still refused to play ball then I'd start at the opposite
end: have a FAT32 USB stick with nothing but three MP3 files at the top
level. Don't let the MP3s be anything too exotic, like particularly
long. And have their filenames be simple, e.g. no spaces, and no
too unusual punctuation.
‘If the Mini likes that then add more variety in different dimensions
until something breaks.
...
‘Did you try my suggestion? Start simple. Three MP3 files:
f1.mp3
f2.mp3
f3.mp3
‘Short, simple filenames. All quite short in play length, like a few
minutes.’

Cheers, Ralph.
