Are you by any chance trying this on a Hero or Eris? The code you cite works fine for me EXCEPT on Hero and Eris (in which case, I think it works on SOME of them).
I think the issue might indeed be that (some?) MP3 files fail on (some of?) these phones. I am myself working toward a "solution" that includes a fallback to a WAV file if the first create(idForMp3) returns null. tone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
