As reported in LP #225949 the Q-be music player isn't detected properly. The reported has written something to add to /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-usb-music-players.fdi to let HAL detect this player properly. Some information: $lsusb Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 012: ID 0f9c:9111 Hyun Won, Inc. Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 The addition to the .fdi file: <match key="@storage.originating_device:usb.vendor_id" int="0x0f9c"> <match key="@storage.originating_device:usb.product_id" int="0x9111"> <addset key="portable_audio_player.access_method.protocols" type="strlist">storage</addset> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/mpeg</append> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/x-ms-wma</append> </match> </match> Another reply from him suggests this to make it more general: "After playing with the .fdi file a bit more, I've found that a more generic match works which will probably add support for a number of other devices: <match key="info.product" contains="AUDIO PLAYER"> <addset key="portable_audio_player.access_method.protocols" type="strlist">storage</addset> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/mpeg</append> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/x-ms-wma</append> </match> However, i suppose other devices are likely to support a different set of file formats so maybe a combination would be best: <match key="@storage.originating_device:usb.vendor_id" int="0x0f9c"> <match key="info.product" contains="AUDIO PLAYER"> <addset key="portable_audio_player.access_method.protocols" type="strlist">storage</addset> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/mpeg</append> <append key="portable_audio_player.output_formats" type="strlist">audio/x-ms-wma</append> </match> </match> I don't know, just thinking. I suppose the main goal is to get the original match i submitted into HAL." The bug report at Launchpad: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/225949
