Static MediaPlayer stops one second after loop for no reason

Today I added a static MediaPlayer to my Activity.
It is static so I can stop it from outside the class it is written in.
But for some reason the MediaPlayer stops after the second or third loop without an error in Logcat.
This is my code:
public static MediaPlayer player;
public static void SoundPlayer(Context ctx,int raw_id){
player = MediaPlayer.create(ctx, raw_id);
player.setLooping(true); // Set looping
player.setVolume(100, 100);
player.start();
}

setLooping after start()
player.prepareAsync();
player.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
player.start();
}
});
player.setLooping(true); // Set after start()

Play Sound File from res/raw using MediaPlayer

I want to play Sound Files from raw folder using MediaPlayer but I don't want to use MediaPlayer.create() method, since I want to play it multiple times and want to retain MediaPlayer object. I was successful in compiling the following code but it plays nothing and I can't hear any sound.
public void STARTSOUND(SOUND sound) throws IOException {
switch(sound) {
case SOUND_MENUBG:
Uri uri = Uri.parse("R.raw.mainmenu");
PLAYSOUND(uri);
break;
}
}
public void PLAYSOUND(Uri file) throws IOException {
mPlayerLoopSound.setDataSource(GameManager.getInstance().getCurrentActivity(),file);
mPlayerLoopSound.prepareAsync();
mPlayerLoopSound.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
if (!mPlayerLoopSound.isPlaying()){
mPlayerLoopSound.setVolume(1.0f, 1.0f);
//start the player
mPlayerLoopSound.start();
}
}
});
}
The onPrepared() method never gets called..
Am I doing anything wrong?

private void playButtonSound(final Context context, final int resourceId)
{
final MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(context, resourceId);
if (mediaPlayer != null)
{
mediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener()
{
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer)
{
if (mediaPlayer != null)
{
mediaPlayer.stop();
mediaPlayer.release();
mediaPlayer = null;
}
}
});
mediaPlayer.start();
}
}
Call this method like this.
playButtonSound(PopScreenActivity.this, R.raw.soundfilename);

First, hopefully you're initializing your MediaPlayer with:
mPlayerLoopSound = new MediaPlayer();
Next, make sure you call:
mPlayerLoopSound.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
which:
Sets the audio stream type for this MediaPlayer. See AudioManager for a list of stream types. Must call this method before prepare() or prepareAsync() in order for the target stream type to become effective thereafter.
Then, in your OnPreparedListener(), when onPrepared() is called, notice the parameter it has: MediaPlayer mp. This is the MediaPlayer that is ready for playback, so you can use it:
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
if(!mp.isPlaying()) {
mp.setVolume(1.0f, 1.0f);
mp.start();
}
}

MediaPlayer OnCompletionListener never being triggered

I've implemented a MediaPlayer using the following code but it's never calling onCompletion. I'm streaming mp3 from my LAN. Any idea what's wrong?
mMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
mMediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mMediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener()
{
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp)
{
mMediaPlayer.start();
}
});
mMediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener()
{
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp)
{
// Nothing here gets executed
mMediaPlayer.start();
}
});
mMediaPlayer.reset();
mMediaPlayer.setDataSource(url);
mMediaPlayer.prepareAsync();
