find . -type d |
while read -r subdir
do
  rm -f "$subdir"/*.m3u
  for filename in "$subdir"/*
  do
    if [ "${filename: -4}" == ".mp3" ] || [ "${filename: -5}" == ".flac" ] || [ "${filename: -5}" == ".loss" ] || [ "${filename: -5}" == ".aiff" ] || [ "${filename: -4}" == ".aif" ]
    then
        echo "${filename##*/}" >> ./"$subdir"/"${subdir##*/}.m3u"
    fi
  done

done

line 8, read without -r will mangle backslashes

line 13, Double quote to prevent globbing and word splitting, should fix
playlist.sh: line 13: [: too many arguments

Perfect. Just what I needed

I still get "playlist.sh: 13 playlist.sh: Bad substitution" error on RaspianOS with NTFS drives. Have no idea why. :(
