I’m running into this problem, where the audio just doesnt want to play. There are no errors, but i dont hear the music when im supposed to. Heres the code below, and the logcat. I dont know how to read the logcat, and that might help solve the problem.

public void start1(final View view)
    {
    setContentView(R.layout.timer); 
    if(path1.equals("default"))
     {
         path1="R.raw.iwilltouchthesky.mp3";
     }


     mp.reset();
     try {
        mp.setDataSource(path1);
    } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
     mp.start();    
    text = (TextView) this.findViewById(R.id.textView1);
    text2 = (TextView) this.findViewById(R.id.textView3);
    a=new CountDownTimer(interval1*1000, 1000) {
        public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
            text.setText("Seconds Remaining: " + (millisUntilFinished / 1000));
            text2.setText("Repetitions Left: "+repsleft);
        }

        public void onFinish() {
            mp.stop();
         start2(view);
        }
     }.start();
    }

The logcat

Try this :

EDIT:

//Play music
    public void playSound(int id){
            try{
                mp = MediaPlayer.create(mContext, id);
                mp.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer arg0) {
                        mp.start();  
                    }
                });
                mp.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener () {

                    @Override
                    public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                        mp.release();
                    }});
            }
            catch (Exception e) {
                // TODO: handle exception
                Log.v("Sound Exception","Sound Exception = "+e.getMessage());
            }
    }

And call this way,

playSound(R.raw.iwilltouchthesky);

You can’t use path in this way "R.raw.iwilltouchthesky.mp3" from the raw folder.

Thanks.
