not sure, make sure you set usb to host most in dev tools, if that's not it 
maybe go to log level 8 and get some more detailed info about what's wrong? 
You can do this in the kernel parameters in /boot/append or in QI just press 
the power button after the second flash of the aux button

Go to software packages and download the mp3 codec, then execute the file that 
shows up in applications. Suddenly media player will read mp3s in ~/Documents 
(qtmokos ~/ which is /home/root not the debian /root)

You can add debian unstabled repos and see if there is anything there, I would 
be very surprised if not...

Please document if you do this! I've lost the second earphones I got for this 
(kindly given to me by my friend Brolin) and it's a real pain to find 2.5mm 
headphones here.

Not the ones built for SHR.... qtmokos got every debian package so something 
should do what you're looking for.
