How to play next audio book file/chapter?

[BakaWoodworker]

Trying to setup an ipad2 for my mother and load some of her audio books on
it. The audio books are mostly in mp3 format with some being in m4a. Books are
marked as audio book format.

Problem is that when placed on the ipad and accessed by going through music
-> more -> audio books, the books appear, selecting one shows all
files/parts of the book, but when playing, it does not advance to next file.
Particular problem in which some books are split into 3 minute chunks per
file.

Taking the same files and placing them on my ipod 5.5, they play fine and
auto-advance fine.

Any ideas?

After selecting an audio book, if you select a file/chapter directly, it will play only that file/chapter and NOT continue to the next one. Also, no icon (speaker) is shown for the files/chapter being played.

If instead you press the play button at top left (not main focus on screen), then the book starts playing from beginning, an icon is present next to file/chapter, and the files/chapter are played sequentially automatically.
