Yes, the Sansa have this annoying habit of rehiding the music
directory. You have 2 choices here, either:

(1) Unhide the directory in Windows and rename it something else if you
    don't use the stock firmware for music.

(2) Setting Rockbox to show all file by going to ""Settings"-> "General
    Settings"-> "File View"-> "Sow Files" and select "All".

As an aside, you will be disappointed with the sound of the Sansa with
the stock Rockbox firmware without the "audio glitch" patch in Flyspray:

You could either apply it yourself and recompile or use a precompiled
version. Here is a link to mine which includes quite a number of
patches:

Just download rockbox_1.zip and rockbox_2.zip in the first post and
unzip them to the top level directory of your player.
