There are two things about Uconnect when playing music from a USB drive that drive me nuts:
The combination of those two issues means Uconnect often reverts to playing the first song it can find every time I start the vehicle. Annoying! So, the fix is:
Now, if Uconnect forgets where it was playing, at least you don't get some annoying song over and over. You'll just have silence. And the silence will continue until the music catalog is built and an actual song of choice can be played.
- Music starts to play every time the ignition is turned on, even with the auto-play setting off.
- Uconnect often "forgets" what song it was playing before turning off the ignition and defaults to the first song it can find on the drive.

- Download an MP3 of 15 minutes of silence from https://github.com/anars/blank-audio
- Put the MP3 in the top-level directory of your USB drive. If you have other songs in that directory, move them down into a folder or folders. This ensures Uconnect finds the silent MP3 first.
