Details

Seen with r27199 on the e200 simulator.

If I place a .wps file in the root directory and "play" it from the file browser, the WPS is not loaded. I'd expect it to load but not to be saved as the setting.

The same file is loaded if it's in the directory /.rockbox/wps, i.e. it's not the wrong file contents that's causing the error.
This task depends upon

this was broken ages ago. I'm not entirely sure how to fix it because the wps paths are more constrained in the code now...

The manual says: "should be placed /.rockbox/wps/". Is this report really a bug?

I thought this works similar to e.g. fonts: it should load (when "played") from any location. If the file is at the "standard" location for that file type ("/.rockbox/fonts" for fonts) then it additionally gets saved in the config. But things may have changed since then...
