Help IPhone to Android Bluetooth Issues

Hi all -

I recently converted from an iPhone to an HTC One M8 and I'm having issues with streaming music over BT. Phone, messages and contacts work, but streaming music over BT does not. When switching to BT in the media section on the Jeep nothing happens, almost like it doesn't see any music on the device. Music is definitely there, but doesn't play. I'm running Kit Kat and Jeep Uconnect is the 8.4 with NAV running latest 14.05 software.

I noticed while browsing the file structure of the HTC that the HTC Sync Manager places music in a weird place. It places the music deep in the mobile directory:

mobile-music-users-username-music-music albums placed here:

I wonder if I just place the music directly into the music folder if it will work. The default location may be too deep for the Uconnect to recognize?

If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it.
 
when you are connected try playing directly from the phone, does it play over the speakers in the jeep?

Figured it out... I moved the music from the default location:

mobile>music>users>username>music>music albums placed here

To the root of the Music folder and music started right up. Full navigation from UConnect as well. That's a relief..
