I solved my own problem: one of the batteries was corroded. 

How to clean battery corrosion from a battery compartment?
  • STEP 1: Protect yourself and your work surface.
  • STEP 2: Clean battery corrosion with a household acid, like vinegar.
  • STEP 3: Use a Q-tip to wipe up the corrosion.
  • STEP 4: Pick out the last of the crystalized leak with a toothpick.

My Aria is working again!

Awesome news @CSBF and thanks for sharing. I hate it when batteries corrode. What I use is rubbing alcohol to clean and it dries quickly.
