Default Storage Audio

I have an external SSD loaded with all my music.
When I choose the storage music option I am defaulted to /home/username.
Scrounging this forum and the GitHub I have yet to discover how I can change the default path to that of my storage device.
Please be patient as I am still learning about linux and programming in general.
Any advice?

Home directory is the default one currently but setting a custom path is a good idea. We will add this configuration option in the next release, which will be published later this month.

For now you can create new directory, e.g. /home/username/music and mount external disc here. Auto mounting after restart you can set via fstab.
Alternative to this can be creating symbolic link with ln -s.
(Btw chatgpt should help you easily in this case).

That's a good idea, I didn't even think about mounting the drive to the music folder in home.
I'll do that until the configuration is implemented in the next release.
