I had the same no sound issue. Well, more then just that issue, so I should back up.

I have a Pioneer 5900iB HU and the CD-UB100 adapter.

I started by hooking up a 120gb FAT32 (single partition) Western Digital hard drive. Got to "Format Read" and never went any further. I later learned that the drive has more than 500 folders on it, which may explain the failure.

After that, I hooked up my Archos 504 PMP. Its 80gb and formatted as a single FAT32 partition. It found all of the folders/files and seemed to play them properly, but I received no sound.

Next I tried a simple 128mb flash drive with a single mp3 file in the root. Same thing. Played the file, no sound.

I called Crutchfield, who sold me the USB adapter, and they are shipping me a replacement unit. We will see if that fixes the problem.

If anyone has had the 'no sound' problem and managed to fix it, please reply.
