CD audio playback missing some songs

So i was all excited because i got CD audio playback to work finally. However, i noticed that XMMS is stopping before the end of the album. In fact, i can't get it to go beyond the 14th song on the album, and there are 16! I don't think the last two are "extras" or anything funky. Just two more songs. Does this make sense to anyone?

Actually, after a few more tests, it's not dependent on the number of songs- it just hits n-2 songs (where there are n songs on the album) and thinks it's at the end of the album. Can anyone help?

Flandry,

Are you sure you are not testing with copy protected CDs?
They often have a data track at the end which players see as an extra 'track'
See if you can mount and browse your test CDs.
If the data track is there, you can mount it like a data CD.

I can't seem to mount any of them. But the issue is that i know that there are two more song tracks on the CDs, and they don't play- don't even show up in XMMS. This is for multiple CDs, and every one of them ends after n-2 tracks.
