Resume Playback returns you to the last playlist.  New tracks aren't added 
automatically.

That's the way it's supposed to work.  Each directory comprises a separate 
playlist.  Once a dynamic playlist is initialized by starting playback in 
a given directory, it's up to you to add other playlists (including 
directories) to it if that's what you want.

So, you might start the ball rolling by playing something on internal 
storage.  Then, long press <microSD1> (or whatever the SD mountpoint is 
called), select Current Playlist, and select one of the insert or queue 
options.

I presume you could accomplish the same thing via the database (maybe just 
something like "play all tracks").  I've never actually used the database 
as Rockbox doesn't require it and neither do I.
