MP3's in Media Shoebox not playing

I use:

SETSHOEBOX "gfx.sbx", "music.sbx"

"music.sbx" has been shoeboxed from a folder called "music" and contains an MP3 file.

I use PLAYMUSIC "music/track1.mp3" and I get no music playing.  If I put the music folder back in with the file, the music plays.  Not tried PLAYMOVIE.  Everything in my data shoebox (gfx.sbx) seems to work ok, just the media shoebox having this problem.

This is on Windows.

This is an interesting bug, as I had this issue - however, the MP3 played fine on my machine, but not somebody else's that tested my game.

I'm using Xp SP2, maybe Vista or other versions of Windows cause the problem? The sound card?
I came. I saw. I played.

Oh dear. I searched in the wrong shoebox. Fixed.

Thanks Gernot.  Confirm all is working again for my media shoebox :D
