That did the trick, thank you.

I've seen similar issues when trying to read other file types from the

specialFolderPath("documents") and play it from there. It's likely a
permissions problem that I wish didn't exist.

Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has insight into the usage of
"androidStartAudioPlayingInBackground()", or can confirm that it works?
I setup a test stack that attempts to play a public domain MP3 using
the following script but nothing plays. I receive nothing from the
function, and I'm getting the following in logcat: LiveCode: JNI
exception thrown when calling native method
on mouseUp
local tFile
put specialFolderPath("engine") & "/" & "spring_song.mp3" into tFile
if there is not a file tFile then
answer "File not found:" && tFile
end if
put androidStartAudioPlayingInBackground(tFile) into card field
"result"
-- logcat: LiveCode: JNI exception thrown when calling native method
end mouseUp
I've tested this build using Community 9.6.2 (rc3) and 9.0.5, on an
Android 9.0 Virtual Device and a Android 9.0 phone. Same result
across the board, nothing plays.
I did test and confirm the ability to play the audio file with
"mobilePlaySoundOnChannel", but I need background playback for my
project to work. Also, I searched the LiveCode Quality Control site
for existing bugs (no results) and searched the forum a bit.
Does anyone have any ideas? Here is my test stack if you're willing
to give it a shot on your end:

Thank you in advance,
