This file can not be opened as a file descriptor; it is probably compressed

Question

I get the error:

This file can not be opened as a file descriptor; it is probably compressed

After some googling it appears that I need to add an extension to my file, such as .mp3, the only problem is, my file is already an mp3.

Any ideas how I can make this work?

Answer 1

add following to build.gradle file

   aaptOptions {
       noCompress "mp3"
   }
