I put some music on an SD card to play in my '23 Bolt EV 1LT. At first, it played the songs but not in the order in which I put them on the card. It seemed to be shuffling the songs since the genres were changing frequently but the shuffle button was not showing that shuffling was happening. I browsed the song list and I realized it had put them in alphabetical order by song title and it was playing them in that order. Eventually, I was able to find a way to display them in alphabetical order by album, or by genre but, when I do that, I can't find a way to play them. I tried to highlight the name of an album, when I had them sorted by album, in order to play that album but it refused to highlight the album title. I highlighted the first song on an album when I had them sorted by album and I hoped it would play the whole album but it only played that one song over and over. I hit the "skip to the next song" button and it stopped playing and took me to something that looked like trip route planning (it asked for an address). I got tired of hearing that one song while driving so I held the top button on the infotainment down for a couple of seconds to turn off the music and the screen went dark but the music kept playing. I tried to turn the volume down using the steering wheel paddles but it would not respond. I did a word search for SD and "memory card" on the pdf of the owners manual and got nothing. Are there instructions anywhere for getting control of the infotainment system while playing music from an SD card? It certainly is not logical, intuitive, or user friendly.
