No.  I have XMMS as the first setting, then Enqueue...  Today, I 
switched it to Enqueue first.  At least the file will play this way.  I 
just have to manually start it.  With XMMS [play] as the first option, 
it still won't play the track, manually or automagically.

No, I don't.  I'll check it out.

Hey, thanks for the reply.  These are good places to start.  Take care 
all.
