html input of type file not uploading .mp3

Question

I have an html input of type file. the files that the user uploads are sent to a php code via an ajax. My html code:

<input type="file" id="attachments" name="attachments[]" multiple>

My ajax function:

var formData = new FormData(document.querySelector("form"));

$.ajax({url: "target.php",
        type:"POST" , 
        data:formData, 
        processData: false, 
        contentType: false ,
        success: function(result){

               //do somthing
         }
});

My php code:

foreach(array_keys($attachments['name']) as $key) {

    $file_name = $attachments['name'][$key];
    $file_location =  $attachments['tmp_name'][$key];
    echo $file_name.$file_location;
}

The problem is that on the php side, when the user uploads an image, the code works just fine, but when i upload a .mp3 file the $file_location variable is empty even though the $file_name is correct. Anyone knows why this happens ?

@Jurik I dont think the problem is in using formdata because the code is working fine with other media jst not mp3 — unknown_111, Jun 14 '16 at 10:09
