Well, I'm having all kinds of problem with my DX220 - not a good introduction to the brand
Can't play any music, keep getting "mango app crashed". Have tried several artist folders on the microSD card, rebooted the DAP, and several headphones, same issue all of the time. And yes, I scanned the microSD without issue after inserting the card and file manager on the device shows content.
Was going to test tonight by copying data across to the internal storage and seeing if I get the same error message. Connected the player to my computer's USB port, turned the DAP on, Windows 10 refuses to see it as a drive. Nada. Nothing. Device Manager shows unknown device, but that'll be for the USB DAC I suspect and i haven't installed the Windows driver for the DAC functionality. The user manual doesn't really say much about connecting the DAP to a computer so I'm not sure if there's something I have to do at the DAP end to get it working. I've went through the settings and can't find anything to suggest so. Very frustrating.

Kind of unintuitive. I'll be honest, I dislike android OS, it's terrible imho. Sadly, there's no DAPs using alternatives like iOS which is far superior imho! I managed to get it (file transfer) working - some feedback for iBasso - it should auto switch to MTP connection method when connected to a PC - my AK unit does and pretty much every other USB mass storage device that I've used in 15+ years IT support has worked that way too. It's probably an Android thing.
I have my microSD card from my AK unit, so will swap that out and see what happens. If both microSD cards won't play, my instinct is that it's a microSD slot issue. I hope not...
2nd edit: I just clicked on the new storage warning that pops up on the main screen and told the unit to "use as portable storage". Not sure if that was the correct thing to do or not. Tried mango app again and same error message.
3rd edit: just a though - does the unit support .m4a files (I have a bunch of albums that I bought via iTunes on the card). I had a look at the specs on the product page on iBasso's website but it doesn't list .m4a. It would be very disappointing if the product doesn't support the .m4a format.
