I have precisely the same issue; Autoplay is on, autoplay even uses Windows
Media PLayer 10. Windows XP Pro.

Since nobody's answered this in months, does it mean WMP is just plain broken?

Good tip, but Auto Notification IS on - "1" and Auto Play is set for WMP. I
should mention I see the same behavior when playing or ripping.

This isn't something you can change or tweak in WMP... it can just react to
what the system tells it has happened with the CD drive.
