Problems running Adafruit VS1053B on Photon 2

I was able to initialize the SPI connection to the VS1053 from the Photon 2. I used the FeatherWing variation, and probably an earlier version, but the initialization and the SD card worked.

t VS1053 Library Test
0000002342 [app] INFO: VS1053 found
files/
  000001.txt
  000003.txt

Of note:

  • Tested with Device OS 5.8.2
  • Adafruit Music Maker FeatherWing w/ Amp - MP3 OGG WAV MIDI Synth Player - Stereo 3W Amplifier (3436)
  • Used the Adafruit_VS1053 library
  • VS1053 initialized but I didn't test the audio features
  • SdFat worked correctly read the SD card
  • Copied the source from the ParticleTest example
  • The example source lists the pins that it uses
  • Added this to the top of setup to get more log messages:
waitFor(Serial.isConnected, 10000); delay(2000);
