Help Recently Downloaded Song Disappearing Overnight

I noticed that within the past month the songs I download will appear in my music player (which is the stock one for the HTC inspire) for a day and disappear overnight. I have Astro File manager and the songs will appear in the Music Download Folder, but not in the Music Folder. I'm assuming the files have to be in the music folder for them to play in the music player. Is there any way to prevent my music from disappearing from my music player overnight?
 
Hmmm.....
I had this same issue with the gallery, I ended up downloading an App called QuickPic to replace the stock gallery and that solved the problem.

I just went and looked at the stock music app for a couple of songs I recently downloaded, and like yours they aren't there. Does anyone know of a good App to replace the stock music App?

Both of these issues started happening after the update.

I'm having the same problem. Transferred music yesterday, worked fine then, today they are missing from music player but still show on SD card. I can choose one through Astro and play it, but then the file listing says there's no music on the phone.
Just lovely.

Edit: Found this through a search, my phone is not an HTC, it's a Sony Ericsson Xperia mini pro, just purchased, haven't updated, Android 2.2.3. Photos disappeared as well, but are still on card.
