Check the orientation of the jack? Make sure the signal & ground connections are correct

Like Brian says, check your connections, the 3.5 mm plug is a stereo plug, , your mono output from the piezo might not be linking with the correct lug on the 3.5

Hi Cameron, great what you're doing with the kids!

I'm with Brian Q and Darryl.....I was wondering if you could try a 3.5mm stereo female to 3.5mm mono male jack adaptor (like the one below) as a quick fix/check? You should be able to pick one up for around 2 to 3 US dollars.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your program!

Thanks all! These are stereo plugs. I will look for a mono version. Thank you!

The stereo plugs will work, but you just need to make sure the hot wire is on the correct lug, you have a ground lug and 2 hot lugs, but you only need 1 hot 1 connected
