avd crashes when audio played from raw

Issue

I have been working on a blackjack game lately, and I had the program running smoothly until I started integrating audio from my raw folder into my project. now, It crashes every time I run the app. I have been trying to solve this for about a week now, but without success. Perhaps somebody may be able to solve this puzzle. Here's the block of code that I am struggling with:

final Button redeal = (Button) findViewById(R.id.redeal);
redeal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
        MediaPlayer m = new MediaPlayer();
        m = MediaPlayer.create(getBaseContext(), R.raw.shuffle);
        String path = "android.resource://" + "/" + R.raw.shuffle;
        try {
             //m.setDataSource(context, Uri.parse(path));
            m.prepare();
            m.start();
            redeal.playSoundEffect(R.raw.shuffle);
            reDeal();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
});

Here is my logcat:

Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Solution

Try this code in your onClick() function:

MediaPlayer mp =MediaPlayer.create(YOUR_CLASS_NAME.this, R.raw.shuffle);
mp.start();
