Audio library not showing in any app

This has probably been answered but I cannot find the answer nor can i find a similar problem.

 

I am posting in this forum because I use my Roku more than any other client but the problem happens on my Fire TV and Shield TV as well.

 

I created a music type library that is simply a number of directories that contain a number of single mp3 files that are simply single file audiobooks. It is type "music" but the problem also happens if I try type "book."

 

The problem is that the library does not even show up in the Roku app at all. My other libraries, on TV type and two movie types and one pictures all show and play fine.

 

The audio library shows and plays fine in the web app.

 

If I create a library of "unset" type of the same file it shows and plays fine in the Roku app.

 

If I need to post any logs just let me know which ones but I suspect the solution is quite simple but it just is missed by my old brain.

 

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Are you sure that you're logged in as the same user in all scenarios? Maybe the user logged in on the Roku doesn't have access to the library?

Absolutely! I am the only user on my system.

 

I do not understand how "unset" works and "music" does not.

My guess is the structure is such that the items are not being discovered as music.

 

When you look at these items in the web app do they look like music?  Have albums and artists etc and all of the features that come with music?
