It probably has something to do with the speed you're burning at. I've never heard of your particular problem, but I do know that if you burn at higher speeds, some CD players can't even begin to read the data (let alone make a buffer with it). Try burning at 2x or 1x. If that doesn't solve your problem, then I'm out of help. Oh yeah, if you're using RWs that might be a factor as well. Some players can't read those either.
