What version of xmcd are you running?  Some CDROM drives are slow
to respond after issuing a start command, and a subsequent request
to play can fail.  In xmcd 2.5, a small delay was inserted to work
around this problem.  If you are running a version of xmcd older
than 2.5, I suggest upgrading to the latest, which is 2.5 PL1.
You can download it at:

If you are already running 2.5, then perhaps I can work with you
a bit to track down the problem.
