SimpleAudioPlayer + sleep function

Question

I have tested the SimpleAudioPlayer example.

https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/SimpleAudioPlayer

This works fine, but when I add a sleep(1000) at the end of the loop() function, the music sounds dismembered (second run).

void loop()
{
 // ... source from the example 
 myFile.close();
 Serial.println("End of file. Thank you for listening!");
 sleep(1000);
}

Does anyone have any idea on how to resolve this?

Answer 1

sleep() is something different. You are probably want to use delay(1000) instead.

sleep() comes from libsam and is not very well documented for use within the Arduino environment. There is probably a conflicting timer or interrupt between sleep() and the Audio.h library. So sticking with delay() is probably your best option.
