It had a bit of a squishy sound so I figured it could use a re-capping but I
must've screwed up somehow. But re-capping is pretty straight-forward, and I
think I did it right. So now, what could have gone wrong?

Hmm, let's think about it for a moment, it worked before you screwed
with it, you screwed around with it, it doesn't work now... Anything
leap out at you? Ten points if you came to the same diagnosis as me...
Switching inputs is
not going to help me track down the problem at all. C'mon, I may be a
'self-taught' novice electronics tinkerer, but that is downright stupid - I
already said the music plays fine for a few seconds after it warms up then it
fades out, so obviously its not a problem of a flakey input.. sheesh.

Flakey downright rude tinkerer IMHO.
