MP3s won't auto-start

I do not download to my LW "Shared": folder. Rather, to one I've named "New Downloads" (within the LW folder). After downloading, I review the file for quality and completeness and then move it to "My Music" folder.

My program of choice to listen to MP3s is RealJukebox. Downloading a file with LW 1.4 getting a file to play was no problem -- a simple double click. Oddly, since 'upgrading' to LW 1.6b, when I double click a file in the "New Downloads" folder RealJukebox *does* open -- but the file will not auto-start. To play the file I must use File/Open. Too, once I have moved the file to "My Music" folder the file *will* auto-start by double clicking.

One additional bothersome bugger: I have 28 files by the same artist (St. Olaf Choir). None of these files will, or have ever, auto-started. Each must be started using the File/Open commands. Does this make any sense? Is it a LW issue, the way the files were originally recorded, or something else?

Thanks for your thoughts.
