Play a .sqm music file stored on a SD card. Robot.beginSpeaker() and Robot.beginSD() are both required in setup().
Unlike Robot.playMelody() and Robot.playBeep(), playFile() does not halt other processes while playing. However, you cannot load new images on the LCD screen when playFile() is in use.
Valid files for playback are generated/converted by the sound library Squawk. See the library README for details on how to create your own music.
