Stereo says "No Music" when trying to play through USB

[samger2]

Long story short I got had to get a new (refurb) SGSII and now when I try to play music through my Kenwood Excelon X696 the screen displays "no music"...there's over 1000 songs on the phone, I can listen to it fine through my headphones or through the speaker on the phone...and furthermore, this has only started happening since I had to get warranty on my first SII and they sent me a refurb. On my new phone it worked just fine. Does it sound like there's a setting I'm missing or potentially another bad phone?

Nevermind...figured it out. Had to select "connect USB storage" so that the head unit is reading the phone as a mass storage device. I just find it odd because I never had to do that before on my previous SII.
