Amazon posted a tip for listening to mp3s:

"Dropping your MP3-based podcasts into the 'Audible' folder on your Kindle or SD memory card will allow you to see the podcast in Home. When opened, you can bookmark, pause, fast forward, etc., just like you do with an audiobook."

But I tried this with my Economist mp3s (available at no additional charge to print subscribers on their website) and it did get listed with proper title and 'author', and pretended to play, but I got no sound, from neither the speaker nor headphones.

Anyone get this to work?
