On my desktop, I have an SSD for the system drive and an HDD for bulk storage, including my Music folder. I just did a clean install of Xubuntu 22.04.1 and modified fstab to mount the HDD (labeled Storage) automatically. However, it doesn't appear in Places and Audacious can't browse it. It says Could not read the contents of Storage Error opening directory '/mnt/Storage': Permission denied.
I made myself the owner of /mnt but that doesn't help. I read somewhere that this can be fixed by mounting the drive in /media instead, but that didn't help, even after I made myself the owner of that too. Anyone know how to fix this? I want to be play some tunes on my main system!
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 6 peyre root 4096 Nov 3 07:31 media
drwxr-xr-x 4 peyre root 4096 Nov 2 12:31 mnt
For reference, here's my fstab:
Code:

I also deleted ~/Music and created a symlink to /media/Storage/Music. In Thunar, double-clicking on Music in my home folder opens /media/Storage/Music and I can see all my music folders. But Audacious refuses to open them symlink too.
Edit: Ok, I got Storage to appear in Places by creating a shortcut to it under Places in the lefthand pane of Thunar. But Audacious remains stubborn.
