Utilities and 3rd Party Applications / Re: SoundSense: a sound engine for dwarf fortress.

Hello! I've been looking around on this thread, as well as trying different edits of system.xml, but I cannot get music to play when starting the game. I'm trying to put my own song in there.
This is the top of my system.xml:
I have checked that I have a sub folder in /packs/System called "theme", and that the song is in there and correctly named. When starting soundsense and DF, all it says is that it's playing the weather channel. I tried changing the channel to "weather" just to see if that worked, but it didn't. The gamelog.txt tells me "*** STARTING NEW GAME ***", followed by an announcement that spring has arrived and that the weather has cleared. Anyone know what's up with this?
I apologize in advance if this has been brought up other times, but like I said, I wasn't able to find any info on that when searching the thread.
Probably also worth noting that I'm using the packSkeletons.zip pack.
EDIT: Upon further testing (by trying to change the sound when finding new ores, and adding siege music), I found that the only sounds I've found that will play are the seasonal songs. Help would be highly appreciated! The packs where my non-playing sounds are located don't show up in the Soundsense Pack Configuration window, but the seasons folder does.
EDIT 2: I tried using the official sound pack, all packs load in the Pack Configuration window and then deleting all sound files there, and I only get default.xml, seasons.xml, trading.xml and weather.xml to show. I also tried editing the .xml file and removing all entries that didn't have an actual sound file attached to them, without success.
