The thing works for 3 seconds then ejects, presumably the tape player isn't

Is it possible other makes of adaptor would work better or will this player
reject every such device?

Ah, young Nerk, have a picture of Queen Victoria while I describe what
you need.

You need to find an adapter that has little wheels between the two
sprocket holes so that, when one is driven so is the other. This is
because these tape players monitor the non-driven spindle to find when
the tape has come to the end.
